Northrup Grumman's Cannon-Based Air Defense: Long range artillery, medium-range autocannons and rapid fire HMGs all with guided projectiles could defend against swarms of drones/rockets/missiles much cheaper than an all-anti-missile-missile based defense.

AI will enable drones to fly at treetop height, which means it'll be very, very hard to counter with massed direct fire because of hiding from sight.

So in other words, Bofors needs to revive this project.

Flak cannons are so back baby!

I have a feeling that this works better for the older generation of expensive drones. More modern low cost drone swarms might make this fairly impractical. especially compared to lasers n the like. still vry cool, but i wonder how much one of those guided munitions actually costs

bro , cannon shells to intercept cruise missile? Serious??

Is it just a concept that will take billions to develop and a decade of cost overruns to see the light of day ? Just curious

Dome defense has to expend fullspec rounds against potential waves of cheaper decoy reconswarms before the mainevent when sensors will have battlefield map cleared of fog on shooters that the AI then Tees off on faster than human reaction time at the cyberwhiteboard showing score

Shells and Cannons are cheaper than Air defense rockets. BUT they cant really react to the attacking missile evading randomly. Only their shrapnel burst may be their upside. It would be cheaper alternative to counter "Flying Bomb like" Kamikaze Drone Swarms.

The upgrade here is that each projectile is maneuverable, able to track targets.

🇮🇷 Iran’s Ballistic Missile Arsenal and the Regional Counter Strategy Fateh Series (SRBM) The Fateh family represents Iran’s core short range ballistic missile capability. These missiles use solid fuel, allowing rapid launch with minimal preparation time. Estimated range is around 300 km, designed for battlefield and regional targets. Later variants emphasize higher accuracy through improved guidance and terminal maneuvering, making them more difficult to intercept than older systems. Sejjil (MRBM) Sejjil is a two stage, solid fuel medium range ballistic missile with an estimated range of 2,000 to 2,500 km. Its solid fuel design significantly improves survivability by reducing launch detection time. Sejjil is intended as a strategic missile capable of reaching targets across the Middle East, including major military bases and infrastructure. Kheibar Shekan (Advanced MRBM) Kheibar Shekan is a newer generation solid fuel missile with a reported range of around 1,450 km. It features a maneuverable reentry vehicle, enabling mid course and terminal phase adjustments to complicate interception. This missile is optimized to penetrate modern missile defense systems rather than relying purely on range or payload. Why these missiles challenge air and missile defenses? Solid fuel propulsion shortens warning time. Maneuverable reentry vehicles reduce interception probability. High speed terminal phases compress response windows. When launched in salvos, these missiles are designed to stress and saturate defensive systems. How regional and allied forces aim to counter this threat Surrounding states and allied bases rely on layered missile defense. Patriot PAC 3 MSE addresses short range and terminal phase threats. THAAD provides high altitude interception against medium range missiles. Israeli systems such as Arrow complement regional coverage. Early warning radars, space based sensors, and shared command networks extend detection and response time. Base hardening, dispersal of assets, and redundancy reduce damage if interception fails. Intelligence driven preemptive strike capability remains a key deterrent factor. Strategic assessment Iran’s missile program emphasizes survivability and defense penetration rather than sheer numbers. In response, regional allies focus on integration, layered defense, and intelligence dominance. The outcome in any future conflict would likely depend less on individual missiles and more on coordination, saturation levels, and decision speed.. Can layered missile defense realistically stay ahead of evolving maneuverable ballistic threats?
