According to images released on X (Twitter), the U.S. armed forces have deployed the Phalanx C-RAM (Counter-Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar) system to safeguard the newly established Gaza floating pier. This system, equipped with advanced radar and sensor systems, is designed to detect and destroy incoming artillery, rockets, and mortar rounds in the air before they can cause damage.
Once a threat is detected, its rapid-response Gatling gun, armed with a 20mm cannon, engages and neutralizes it in mid-air. This high rate of fire, combined with precise targeting, ensures the system can effectively intercept and destroy multiple incoming projectiles simultaneously.
One of the key features of the C-RAM Phalanx is its autonomous operation. The system can operate with minimal human intervention, using advanced tracking algorithms to detect, track, and engage threats automatically. The C-RAM system's effective range is approximately 1.2 km, allowing it to engage incoming threats at a considerable distance before they reach their target. Additionally, it can intercept projectiles at altitudes up to 1,000 meters, providing a broad protective umbrella over its defending area.
