I don’t think it’s a technical limitation that CIWS systems today only fire in one direction.

- esseph 3mo agoWouldn't really improve things. CIWS is just best for a different threat model. We're moving into the "waves of drones with orchestration" phase and expensive directional systems won't survive that, and cost on the drone swarms is still drastically lower. Won't matter if you added ten ciws and ten fire-finding radars.
