Abstract: Defense systems and methods comprising: at least two stationary gun arrays, wherein the arrays are placed to allow redundancy, further wherein the gun arrays adapted to use timer controlled shells, and further wherein the gun arrays are equipped with fluid cooling means, at least one radar subsystem, and at least one computing device in data communication with the gun array and the radar subsystem, wherein the computing device use the radar information to calculate and estimate hostile element movement and interception data.

Abstract: A remote weapon station (10) includes a firearm (12), which is able to fire ammunitions against a target. A remote control board or panel (14) is arranged at a distance from the firearm (12) and is configured to be activated by an operator, so as to control the firearm (12). An automatic target aiming system (32) is configured to provide the remote control board (14) with target aiming signals, which indicate the position of a target that has to be hit by the firearm (12). The remote control board (14) is assembled on a platform (18) which is adapted to be fitted to an aircraft. A support element (28) mounts on the platform (18) and supports the automatic target aiming system (32) and houses the adjustable firearm (12) in a controlled way by the remote control board (14) as a function of the target aiming signals.

Abstract: Multiple embodiments of a system are disclosed for defeating enemy missiles and rockets by the use of a non-lethal cloud of pellets that collide with the missile a certain distance away from the target causing premature detonation of the missile, and/or possible severe damage to the missile, and/or deflection of the missile, and/or a deformation to the ogive cones to cause a short in the fuze circuit, and/or deposition of conductive material to cause a short in the fuze circuit.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for protecting ships against terminal phase-guided missiles provided with a target data analysis system, as well as an apparatus for implementing the method, wherein the missile moving in a direction towards the ship to be protected is detected by suitable sensors, located, and its expected trajectory is calculated by a computer; the type of target data analysis performed by the missile and its attack structure is detected by suitable sensors, and the missile is classified with regard to the type of its target data analysis; the current wind speed and direction of wind is continuously detected by wind measuring sensors; the ship's own data: travelling speed, direction of travel, rolling and pitching motions, is continuously detected by motion and/or navigation sensors; the detected sensor data is transmitted to a fire control calculator which controls at least one decoy launcher and generates, by taking into account all of the detected data, an effective decoy pattern t

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the correction of dynamic gun errors. Dynamic gun errors are caused by the movement of a gun tube muzzle area (3) of a gun (1) in the course of continuous firing. To correct these errors, a measurement of the movement of a gun tube muzzle area (3) of a gun (1) is performed during continuous firing for obtaining measured signals. The measured signals are used for correcting the azimuth and elevation of the gun tube (2) in order to compensate the movement of a gun tube muzzle area (3).
