Phanatic posted:Sort of. Later blocks of Phalanx have a surface-enagement mode so they can target things like speedboats. Phalanx is virtually useless against threats like the supersonic ASMs in the above gif because the range is so short that it's only going to get one shot off while the missile passes through the engagement range, and even if it does hit now you have a broken and burning missile body still flying at your ship at supersonic speeds and you're pretty hosed anyway. Goalkeeper is marginally more useful because of its longer range but it's more accurate to say that those missiles were designed to deal with the defense those guns are capable of. They don't even put Phalanx on new ships, the last-ditch close-range anti-missile defense now is RAM, a navalized Sidewinder missile. RAM isn't actually related to the Sidewinder.
