==Components== '''Gauss Cannon Rate of Fire''' is the CIWS rate of fire per 5 seconds. As it is a dual mount, the rate of fire for the system with therefore be double the racial rate <code>Rate of Fire = 2 x Gauss Cannon Rate of Fire</code> {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;" |+ Gauss Cannon Rate of Fire ! Rate of Fire !! 1 !! 2 !! 3 !! 4 !! 5 !! 6 !! 8 |- ! RP cost |1,000||3,000||8,000||25,000||75,000||250,000 || 750,000 |} '''Beam Fire Control Distance Rating''' is maximum range in which the FC is capable of target tracking. The CIWS is a point-defense weapon with engagement range of 10,000 km against incoming missiles, thus higher precision technology allow smaller FC components. The Fire Control size is given by <code>4HS / (Beam Fire Control Range / 10,000)</code>et {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;" |+ Beam Fire Control Range ! Range (kkm) !! 10 !! 16 !! 24 !! 32 !! 40 !! 48 !! 60 !! 75 !! 100 !! 125 !! 150 !! 175 |- !

The CIWS integral fire control system is assumed to be a 4x speed installation, thus <code>Tracking Speed = 4 * Fire Control Speed Rating</code>. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;" |+ Fire Control Speed Rating ! Rating (km/s) !! 1,250 !! 2,000 !! 3,000 !! 4,000 !! 5,000 !! 6,250 !! 8,000 !! 10,000 !! 12,500 !! 15,000!! 20,000 !! 25,000 |- !

This determines the hull space of the sensor component, the higher the Strength the smaller it is. Note this is not an active sensor that will detect anything else. It is purely a point blank range missile tracker. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;" |+ Active Sensor Strength ! Strength !! 10 !! 12 !! 16 !! 21 !! 28 !! 36 !! 48 !! 60 !! 80 !! 100!! 135 !! 180 |- !

With higher gear size tech less space need to be devoted to machinery, reducing the turret size. '''ECCM''' or Electronic Counter-countermeasure component can be added to the CIWS and will use 0.5HS. As this is a reduced-sized system, it will have half the capability of the regular system.
