I worked for a year at an army ammunition plant (technical guy, IT department). We convinced our branch to allow us to observe the test facility when they were testing 20mm rounds from a Vulcan. The sound... the rumble... was unbelievable. We were 20 feet away, around the corner of a concrete building, behind a sheet metal wall with observation portals. We could still CLEARLY feel the shockwaves. My sternum was vibrating within my chest. Dust from the ground around us was lifting. AND? It was firing at one quarter the normal speed. We were issued ear plugs AND acoustic over-the-ear muffs. Deafening roar.

The cool thing about the bullets themselves is that when they explode they fragment which gives them much needed accuracy by just increasing the area in which the bullets hit. Its literally like shooting a shotgun slug that explodes just before it gets to the target and then turns into birdshot so its actually way more effective in taking down aircraft than one would think

Calling the C-RAM the "Red Whip" is probably the best naming convention I've heard. Love it!

[@DrengrJeep]

The C-Ram is pretty efficient, the tracking system can determine trajectory in order to ignore non threatening rockets. It is also good enough that the OPs Center can pinpoint the source location of the rocket. The enemy usually used washer/dryer timers on their mortars so would be long gone by the time we got to the source. These setups also used DIY tubes so were very inaccurate, their sole purpose was to hit indiscriminately, break morale and give Pogues a reason to file PTSD claims.

[@cathoderay305]

We had the CIWS in the Navy when I served. I think its the same thing. Two radars: one tracks the incoming missile or aircraft and one tracks the outgoing shots with a computer bringing them together to eliminate the target. Very fast and very effective system.

C-RAM is the land based version of the Phalanx weapon system, or CWIS in Naval parlance. It's a last ditch defense against incoming artillery shells, mortar shells, rockets, or missiles. The US is augmenting this system with more mobile vehicle based systems like IM and DEM SHORAD on modified Stryker chassis, and last I heard was doing initial capability trials on the Israeli Iron Dome system, which is a missile based system that can really put a ton of interceptor missiles into the air on simultaneous targets and has a larger engagement envelope than the gun based systems.

[@bobthecannibal1]

The M940 20mm MPT-SD is $27 (USD) per round. The C-RAM expends $2,025 of rounds per second of firing. One soldier costs the US about $100,000 to train and equip. Then a few tens of thousands for ongoing upkeep One 155mm landing on target can kill a hundred. Mind you the "death gratuity" and life insurance totals $500,000, paid to each soldier's next of kin. So the government is out $600,000 for one solder getting killed. the C-RAM is *CHEAP* in comparison. Yes, it's a logistical flex, but we play to our strengths.
