Oooo.. CIWS.. know this is Defence system method..
read this..
A close-in weapon system (CIWS) , often pronounced
" sea-whiz ," is a point-defense weapon for detecting and
destroying short-range incoming missiles and enemy
aircraft which have penetrated the outer defenses,
typically mounted shipboard in a naval capacity. Nearly
all classes of modern warships are equipped with some
kind of CIWS device.
There are two types of CIWS systems. A gun-based CIWS
usually consists of a combination of radars, computers,
and multiple-barrel , rotary rapid-fire cannons placed on a
rotating gun mount. Missile systems use infra-red ,
passive radar/ESM or semi-active radar terminal
guidance to guide missiles to the targeted enemy aircraft
or other threats. In some cases, CIWS are used on land to
protect military bases.
