Phalanx Deckloader System Phalanx CIWS
01 Description
The Phalanx Deckloader System (PDS) is a compact, high density rapid replenisher designed specifically to reload the Phalanx CIWS. The PDS allows total turnaround of the Phalanx CIWS replenishment in less than 4 minutes with only a crew of two.
The PDS mounts on top of the Phalanx ELX with no modifications and provides a flat, non-skid surface that functions as a work platform for reloading operations as well as weapon system maintenance.
The PDS consists of a linear linkless magazine, electric motor and controller, flexible chuting, and an improved loadhead eliminating the need for troublesome timing pins and marks with the use of a Self-Timing Ammunition Rotor (STAR). This product proven ammunition system technology is also found in similar applications on the U.S. Army AH-64 A Apache, the U.S. Air Force AC-130U Gunship, and the U.S. Navy's LALS II Aircraft Replenishment System.
Extensive sea trials have demonstrated the PDS to have an unsurpassed reliability and ease of operation. The system is presently entering the NATO inventory.
