The P-15 Termit is a Soviet anti-ship missile, the first of its kind. It was introduced in 1961, and quickly became proliferated throughout the world. The two ton missile has a range of 40km, which it flies through at about Mach 0.9, putting its 500kg HEAT warhead on a very unfortunate vessel. Termit missiles can engage targets at far longer ranges than the vast majority of naval guns, only surpassed (barely) by the Yamato's massive battleship cannons. While they cannot deny the engagement range advantage of a carrier air group, the P-15 does significantly close the gap, in a very cost-efficient way.
Fire & Forget AShM
This Anti-Ship Missile contains active terminal guidance and inertial navigation; the only real job of the gunners is to point it at a target and fire away. These types of munitions can be fired as Reaction Fire with no penalty to accuracy.
Big Game Hunter
The P-15 Termit was largely conceptualised as an ace in the sleeve against American naval supremacy, and though effective against all types of warships, it is particularly deadly against large ones. Add an Easy DM to hit rolls targeting Battleships, Battlecarriers and Carriers.
