I don't see a lot of options: - Vulcan based systems
- Millennium gun on APC
- Leonardo Draco 76mm on APC
Any ideas? |

Errrr...C-RAM
So if one looks at Wikipedia, one finds the following options.
Centurion
Iron Dome
MANTIS
Porcupine
DRACO
South Africa is developing the Cheetah missile based system.

Centurion and Porcupine are Vulcan based. Iron dome I had not counted due to being Israeli. Mantis is the one based on the millennium gun.
From my thinking Mantis and Draco are the two interesting ones cos they can keep up with mechanised units. Draco can also work as a fire support gun, but has issues with being too effin high.

Certainly DRACO has a lot going for it, with the ability to use existing 76/62 ammo for other roles.
However Poland is current looking at SkySceptor, which is very much just Stunner, bringing in such Israeli tech amyway, it seems a shame not to get Iron Dome/C-Dome as well.
That being said...Skyshield/MANTIS can supposedly handle SAM's as well, presumably ADATS.

hmm, I can see IronDome. For anything longer ranged I'd standardise on CAMM. As for Draco. I like it, but every tank/mech infantry commander is going to scream murder at the height.
Stunner looks good. OTOP I think for that role we will end up using Aster, which, with proper funding has a lot of potential.

I agree that DRACO is a bit.....tall. Really could they not get the system into something a little shorter in height?

As far as I can make out it comes with being able to point the gun upwards ...
