Phalanx CIWS Close-in Weapon System In Action - US Navy's Deadly Autocannon
Рет қаралды 15,398,622
9 жыл бұрынFootage of the Phalanx CIWS Close-in Weapon System in various target practicing exercises.
The Phalanx Close-In Weapons System (CIWS) was developed as the last line of automated weapons defense (terminal defense or point defense) against anti-ship missiles (AShMs), including high-g and maneuvering sea-skimmers. The basis of the system is the M61 Vulcan Gatling gun autocannon.
Consisting of a radar-guided 20 mm (0.79 in) Gatling gun mounted on a swiveling base, the Phalanx has been used by Navies around the world.
The CIWS is designed to be the last line of defense against anti-ship missiles. Due to its design criteria, its effective range is very short relative to the range of modern ASMs, from 1 to 5 nautical miles (9 km). The gun mount moves at a very high speed and with great precision. The system takes minimal inputs from the ship, making it capable of functioning despite potential damage to the ship.

CIWS is the last line of missile defense, behind at least five different types of defensive missiles, depending on what you wanna count. Defeating large naval attacks made of tens or even hundreds of missiles at a time takes a multi-layered approach, but Phalanx is still useful for it's flexibility and low cost. It's pretty cheap compared to alternatives like SeaRAM, and it does okay against a wide range of targets.

Тут нет никакой точности. Очень длинные очереди. Большой расход боеприпасов. Такие пушки стреляют полсекунды. И попадают сразу. Никто в современной войне не будет ждать столько времени. Противокорабельная ракета потопит корабль, если он будет стрелять так плохо. Я служил во флоте России. Мы попадали сразу в мишень. Первыми выстрелами. Причем, по заданию, надо было попасть в моторное отделение. А не просто в лодку. Плохо, очень плохо стреляет эта пушка.

@@thegunman2841 Bro, how are you going to come on here and discredit this guy and not know anything about what you are talking about. The CIWS stands centerline just above the flight deck of a Frigate. It only takes 5 seconds to google FFG CIWS and you have any number of photos to verify. The term Flight Deck isn't unique to Aircraft Carriers, its synonymous with all flight capable ships. And before you assume I don't know what I'm talking about, I decommissioned USS CURTS.

Good example of just how hard it is to hit a pitching and rolling target that's constantly changing direction from a firing system that's pitching and rolling as well. It's incredibly hard...even with "automated" systems. Just imagine that, instead of a skiff, it's an anti-ship missile coming at oh...mach 2 or so. The speed of tech advancement is nuts...even since Desert Storm.

You'd think something that advanced could take the pitch of the boat into account, but it just seems to spray bullets in a rather inaccurate way, better used on larger targets the dinghy just gets missed over and over, I'm a bit disappointed
@drew65sep 2 жыл бұрын
@@MikeWalls7829 yeah, I agree. One would think that the gyroscopes on those weapons would be accurate enough. It's obviously a lot harder than most of us think. But, the "hit" accuracy has improved immensely over the years. Downsized smart weapons and ammunition are improving quickly as well. Laser weapons are already in use...on a limited basis. Lol, as bad as I hate complex mathematics, I'd be pretty useless. So, such is best left for others.
@MikeWalls7829 2 жыл бұрын
@@drew65sep I don't think it's the barrel accuracy either cos you see it spraying in defined lines, I think the robot is just programmed to be spraying that way, it does what it's told... I think a human could have aimed it better to get the dinghy at least. Good for fighting incomming missiles or the likes when it has an advantage of processing speed and vision though. Mostly I just love that gattling gun spraying kilos of bullets per second like a psyco, so awesome!

While it's probably firing something to the extent of 30MM armor-piercing rounds it wouldn't actually be much of a threat to other warships, mostly due to the huge hull, and the fact that almost everything is actually designed to withstand missiles, making withstanding 30MM shells a bit easier.

Sure the systems on board are pretty expensive, but you'll have a much harder time trying to sell those things than you would 10,000 tons of cargo in shipping containers. Plus these ships will put up a hell of a larger fight than a cargo vessel can. Then also the fact that with all the top secret info on these warships, the US Navy would stop at nothing to retrieve control of it back even if it required scuttling it.
