US Navy Testing Deadliest $500 Million Missile-Killing Gatling Gun!

[@trallfraz]

Ray, a good friend of mine (and a good trpt player), worked on, and tested the Gerneral Dynamics Phalanx system when it was first introduced. He told me he and his crew put the Phalanx on a big flatbed simi and drove it up and down the coast on HWY 1, shooting down drones and other targets.

[@Bustahbrown]

He’s lying. Drones weren’t around then.

[@Kumacho1957]

[@KuddlesbergTheFirst]

Imagine 16-18 inch guns not running out of ammo, not overheating or burning out, and the giant gattling firing shells as fast as this.

They need no fewer that 2 per side. Overlapping fields. The cannons need basically grape shot. Basically huge shotgun shells. The Abrams M1028 Canister is devastating. Make the tungsten shot 12.5-14 mm in size and have the cyclic rate of the weapon up to 3 rounds a second. Instead of trying to hit a missile with something that has the cross section of 20mm, cause no matter how you put it, it’s still just one 20mm bullet flying behind another 20 mm bullet. The canister would put up an actual metal wall of metal that would be teens of feet tall and wide. Burn off 3-4 rounds and the natural vibration of the barrel would offset the shot slightly from the previous shot filling in spaces that naturally occur as shot goes down range. So instead of trying to move a 20 mm bullet into a vector to hit the missile, you just fill the air , about half the size of a football field, with .50 cal tungsten balls.

[@misanthropicphilanthropy]

Blanket the skies with a "wall of LEAD!" NOT "A wall of Steel?" They don't fire steel bullets 😢

[@1bishw]

They don’t fire lead either. The shells used to be depleted uranium and are tungsten now.

This idea of a missile killing gun was born during the Falklands War, when the UK realized that NATO warships had no defense against Argentina's Exocet missiles.

[@kurtisvieth6462]

The Falklands crisis was in 1982 The Phalanx system the missile killing gun origin idea was "born" 11 years prior to the Falklands crisis. It first tested on a US Navy destroyer the USS King in 1973. But it did not do very well, but it passed and completed all test in 1977 on the USS Bigalow, still 6 years ahead of the Falklands crisis. In 1980 the USS Coral Sea was the first aircraft carrier to be fully equipped with the Phalanx
