With that white cap(sensors) on it's head, that Phalanx looks like a cook, a mad cook.:arrgh!:

Seriously, one thing I have noticed is that it keeps on shooting a few seconds after it disengaged the target, I guess at the speed the rotaries are turning it's hard to stop on a dime.:o

Cool find SUBMAN1, I always like to see these kinds of vids.:up:

Me too! Always interesting to see how things worked when it is actually employed. Every other pic shows it motionless sitting there on a ship. This one shows what it really does!
