[QUOTE=wd1]the FLIR/CCD/laser sensor complex on the RAFAEL Typhoon, or for that matter the optronic/radar firecontrol systems used by most naval 76mm guns simply does not provide the sensitivity, tracking, ranging and high-speed processing capability needed to deal with modern ASMs. they were designed to shoot at boats and planes not missiles.QUOTE]

This shows the benefit of such systems as the RAMS and SADRAL, fire-and-forget. As long as you know where the missile is coming from, you can fire these missiles at the target without needing the complex target tracking.
