Modern MANPADS accelerate to around Mach 2 in a few seconds. Chasing down a subsonic cruise missile flying directly overhead is going to be a very quick affair.

Explosion when sam hits the cruise missile looks all wrong. All of the sudden there is a round ball of an explosion where you should of had a mach 2 missile exploding and shredding the cruise missile it was aimed at. It just looks like poorly done cgi.
At :042 there is a perfect explosion and the the laws of inertia go out the window and everything stops and drops straight down. Add in the "cameraman" loses the whole shot at just the "right" time and it just doesn't look right to me |

“How did a missile traveling 1600 mph catch up to another missile only going 600mph?? It CANT. It’s FAKE. It’s Ukraine propaganda”
Ok geniuses… let’s say you’re speeding along on the highway and you’re doing 120 mph and you pass a cop car parked on the shoulder. Not long after, you see blue lights right behind you. How did that happen?? It shouldn’t be possible, right? |

This illustrates why hypersonic sea skimming antiship missiles are a big deal. If that missile was going mach 2 50 feet off the deck it would have gotten through.

There's a great vid from early in the Gulf War(s) of a reporter standing on the street, somewhere, doing his broadcast thing. He's about 30 seconds into it when one of our cruise missiles kind of casually hums by overhead...didn't look like it was doing more than highway speed. He was transfixed, kind of shocked.
They were wonder weapons for a long time. Looked for the clip on YouTube, it's nothing but Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine now. |
