Description
This is a 1/100 (scalable to other scales: 139% for 1/72, 131.6% for 1/76, 156.25% for 1/64, 115% for Ho Scale, 178.6% for 1/56, 208.3% for 1/48) scale model of the C-RAM CENTURION PHALANX on semi-trailer.
The C-RAM (Counter Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar) also nicknamed Centurion Weapon System is a Land-Based Phalanx Weapon System with the capability of integration with other protection sensors and systems. The system is designed and manufactured by the American Company Raytheon. Phalanx is a rapid-fire, computer-controlled radar and 20 mm gun system that automatically acquires, tracks, and destroys enemy threats that have penetrated all other ship defense systems. The Phalanx was designed in the beginning as a ship-based anti-missile system. The Centurion™ Weapon System mission represents a revolutionary approach to countering insurgent activities by intercepting rockets, artillery and mortar rounds in the air before impact, thereby reducing or eliminating any damage they might cause. The U.S. Navy uses the same capability of the Phalanx 1B sea-based system as its point-defense weapon to protect the fleet from low-flying cruise missiles and other air and surface threats.. The Phalanx was first tested for possible Centurion™ Weapon System missions in November 2004 and successfully proved its ability to provide unparalleled land-based protection. Phalanx can be interfaced with a multitude of sensors and systems designed to provide an overarching protection umbrella of sites on the ground. In 2009, the Raytheon Centurion weapon system was displayed at the defense Exhibition DSEI in London, United Kingdom.
