It's a Sea Dart, Phalanx is a 20mm gun system. The solid rocket booster exploded, pity because the missile and its ramjet sustainer were probably good to go but never got the chance.

looks like the solid rocket motor didnt leave with the missile and burned on the deck as the missile sank.
IT MUST NOT HAVE BEEN ARMED.
