New gun

You are probably right, Jim, but think of the Navy's AGIS.
Close-in high-rate radar-guided anti-air fire.

Yes, but AGIS can shoot off a couple of bursts (maybe more) then put some
more ammo to it and keep going. With this, you change out the whole system,
guns and all. Sounds like a lot more time between being ready for new
threats, and being exposed while reloading, or lots of systems mounted all
at once,

I could see this new system mounted on a hummer or Bradley for RPG
protection, but you shoot one RPG, unload the system, then fire another RPG
and get right through.
Good idea, but I just can't see it being practical.
The best way to use it might be for IED's disposal, mounted on a RC vehicle.
Now if we could just detect them all.....
