CHARLIE JA. ::Dokle se stiglo sa razvojem raketa 57E6 sa poboljšanog sistema Pancir-1E koji ima domet od čak 20 km, visinu delovanja od 10 km i maksimalnu brzinu od 1300 m/s (4680 km/h)???
Na prvoj strani se pominjala mogućnost da budu instalirane i na Kaštan-M.
Ta raketa je u naoruzanju jos od 2008g na `Pancir -S1`
Pitanje je da li su te rakete na brodskim sistemima ...

Citat:Russian Kashtan (Chestnut)
What do you get when you combine the hard hitting close in punch of the AK-630's 30mm cannon with the long range and agility of a guided missile and then multiply it by two? The mother of all CIWS systems.
The Kashtan is one large and destructive beast. It packs a pair of 30mm cannons and features no less than eight short range radio guided 9m311 surface-to-air missiles in a hulking swiveling turret. As many as eight turrets, all of which feature their own scanning and tracking radar systems, as well as electro-optical and infrared sensors, can be tied to a central fire control system which can be further integrated into a ships overall combat system, as is the case with Russia's only aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov. Such a system amounts to an ability to put so many rounds and so many missiles in the air in rapid succession that it would be next to impossible for something hostile trying to make its way toward the ship to survive. Literally death by ridiculously overwhelming firepower.
Kashtan is really the "kitchen sink and then some" method to protecting the inner most realm of a surface combatant's defensive perimeter. Its missiles can be used to initially engage hostile targets while the cannons are there for any surviving missiles or aircraft that "leak through." The system is so redundant that it actually features a lower missile magazine with up to 32 additional 9m311's that can be automatically loaded onto the Kashtan's launching arms should the first eight missiles, usually fired in salvos of two like the RAM, not be enough. Also, since there is an electro-optical and infrared sighting system also embedded into the launcher, the guns can engage surface targets via a gunner sitting safely inside the ship's hull at the Kashtan's fire control console.
The Kashtan is really one hell of a CIWS package, albeit it has a much larger "footprint" than any of the western "plug and play" close in weapon systems. It seems that the US may have missed the opportunity to build their own super-CIWS, maybe one featuring the Goalkeeper's big ass GAU-8 Avenger cannon and an 11 round pack of "fire and forget" RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missiles, all tied into a modular Phalanx fire control unit. Wishful thinking aside, the Kashtan's heavy hitting, long range, redundant punch takes the cake for the world's most deadly CIWS.
