I don't have time to finish my LAN testing right now, but so far it looks like even with multiple attack vectors the CIWS can defeat a 16 missile salvo on automatic. It was a close call though. I'll try to look into this a little more tonight after I figure out the precise limitations of the missile seeker to get the best possible separation.

Com'on now ML, you know perfectly well that manual targeting is just not as proficient as auto-targeting.
And more relevant is the fact that while you are manually targeting the missiles with the cwis you can't at the same time use the sm-2.
And this is why the cwis has to be used on auto.
