actually CIWS now less popular now, event from ARLEIGH BURKE FIIA start they also phase out CIWS/RAM missile replace with ESSM, RAM missile still better replace CIWS for small ship. (CIWS i means not same with Naval Gun).
for Gowind, not sure how many hole VLS will selected in final spec, from initially is 8 vls hole than only have 8 Mica-VL it look very weak defense liability , event at lease 16 hole vls is more idea for 3000 tons ship. but if using mk-56 vls with dual pack ESSM, 16 hole we can have 32 unit ESSM missile, plus 50Km air defense range, is more than enough for our navy, also can help our country lack of SAM defense system.
Nah, they are going for searams as ciws.for Gowind, not sure how many hole VLS will selected in final spec, from initially is 8 vls hole than only have 8 Mica-VL it look very weak defense liability , event at lease 16 hole vls is more idea for 3000 tons ship. but if using mk-56 vls with dual pack ESSM, 16 hole we can have 32 unit ESSM missile, plus 50Km air defense range, is more than enough for our navy, also can help our country lack of SAM defense system.
which what I prefer for our ship.
Gowind have 16vls cells as initial iinm.
But from what I heard it have buffer space to install upto 24-32 cell.
