I have CIWS set to full auto, there's a missile inbound from a bomber coming in at ~90 deg to starboard, but the ciws fires into the water, and fires into the water on the port side. Am I missing something? Only way I can survive is by putting show truth on and using an SM-2 to intercept while the phalanx fires into the water.

Also, with show truth turned off, seems impossible to intercept with an SM-2. From the time I get an EW message, to assign as a target in weapons control, i'm usually dead. With the phalanx not working, makes it impossible to survive a missile attack, countermeasures didn't seem to do much.

Just a note, it wouldn't let me classify the missile as hostile in EW. It has friendly lit up in green.
