[edit] Sea Slug effective?
I think most sources would agree that Seaslug was not, in fact, a successful system. It had huge "ship impact" (the ship needed to be large and expensive, and to be designed around it) and, like other beam-riding missile systems, rendered the carrying ship vulnerable to beam-riding retaliation. These factors probably explain the comparatively short service lives of these large and costly ships.--Vvmodel (talk) 14:13, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
