Fully U.S. Navy-qualified and field-proven, the Phalanx Tracking Platform was designed and proven to withstand continuous gun shock in a full naval environment. The high-performance isolation and decoupling system allows tracking during gun firing. The lightweight pedestal minimizes impact on gun servo performance.

Adaptable to a wide range of applications and environments, the Phalanx Tracking Platform is available as part of a fully integrated fire control system or as a component for OEM applications.
