The CIWS will have a Gatling system and look similar to Phalanx in many aspects but differ from the electro-optic system it will carry on board. The MKE’s solution will receive the information about the target from vessels radars through the Advent system. Instead, it will have an electro-optic system to track the target visually.
The electro-optical system on the system; has a cooled thermal camera, a day camera and a laser rangefinder. The system includes land and naval units; The system, which can protect against guided missiles, air-to-ground missiles, cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, planes and helicopters, was developed with domestic and national resources.
The 20 mm Rotary Barrel Weapon System will be used in the system, which has a firing capacity of 4,000 rounds per minute and an effective range of 2,000 meters. The system, which has a firing rate of 3000-4000 rounds/min, will have a weight of 3500 kilograms and a capacity of 1500 ammunition. The project is expected to be completed next year.
