Question time: How effective are Spectre gunships on Naval Vessels?

They'd be sitting ducks.
Gunships fly at relatively low airspeeds and altitudes and manoeuvre in slow, predictable circles around their target area. That's fantastic when you're fighting an enemy without sophisticated air defense systems, but against a modern navy, they'd be shot down within seconds.
There's a reason naval warfare has evolved to firing anti-shipping missiles (either air or surface launched) from beyond visual range.
