avia.wikisort.org - WeaponMANTIS Air Defence System[1] (Modular, Automatic and Network Capable Targeting and Interception System), formerly titled as NBS-C-RAM (Nächstbereichschutzsystem Counter Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar), is a very short-range air defence protection system of the German Air Force, intended for base-protection. It is produced by Rheinmetall Air Defence, a subsidiary of Rheinmetall of Germany. It is a part of the air force's future SysFla air-defence project.

System
The NBS C-RAM system is supposed to detect, track and shoot down incoming projectiles before they can reach their target within very close range. The system itself is based on Oerlikon Contraves' Skyshield air defence gun system.
An NBS C-RAM system consists of six 35mm automatic guns (capable of firing 1,000 rounds per minute), a ground control unit and two sensor units. The entire system is fully automated. The guns fire programmable AHEAD ammunition, developed by Rheinmetall Weapons and Munitions - Switzerland (formerly Oerlikon Contraves Pyrotec). The ammunition carries a payload of 152 tungsten projectiles weighing 3.3g (51gr) each.
Originally, the German Army ordered a first batch of two systems in 2009, to be delivered in 2013, with two more systems planned to follow later, but were never bought. Both MANTIS systems have been transferred to the German Air Force, which is now responsible for all air defence tasks. The first two systems cost around €110.8 million, plus another €20 million for training and documentation purposes. In a follow-on contract, worth around €13.4 million, Rheinmetall will also deliver the corresponding ammunition to the German Army.[2]
The German Air Force took possession of the first MANTIS system on January 1, 2011.[3]

[de] MANTIS (Flugabwehrsystem)
Das MANTIS, ehemals auch Nächstbereichschutzsystem C-RAM (NBS C-RAM), ist ein stationäres Luft-Nahbereichs-Flugabwehrsystem (englisch Short Range Air Defense, kurz SHORAD). Neben den klassischen Zielen der Flugabwehr, wie Flugzeuge und Hubschrauber, kann es sowohl gegen kleine Ziele wie Drohnen/UAVs und Lenkwaffen als auch gegen sogenannte RAM-Ziele (Raketen, Artilleriegeschosse und Mörser) eingesetzt werden. C-RAM ist dabei die international gebräuchliche Abkürzung für Counter-Rocket, Artillery and Mortar.
Der Name MANTIS setzt sich zusammen aus den Anfangsbuchstaben der englischsprachigen Bezeichnung Modular, Automatic and Network capable Targeting and Interception System, welches die grundlegenden Eigenschaften des Systems beschreibt.
Rheinmetall Air Defence vermarktet das System international unter der geschützten Bezeichnung MANTIS NBS C-RAM.[1]

Le système de défense aérienne allemand MANTIS[1] (de Modular, Automatic and Network capable Targeting and Interception System, en français : Système de ciblage et d’interception modulaire, automatique et compatible réseau), anciennement NBS-C-RAM (contre-roquettes, artillerie et mortier), est le dernier système de protection à très courte portée de l'armée pour la Luftwaffe, destiné à la protection des bases militaires, en particulier en Afghanistan. Il est produit par Rheinmetall Air Defence, une filiale de Rheinmetall en Allemagne. Il fait partie du futur projet de défense aérienne SysFla.

MANTIS [1](Sistema di intercettazione e puntamento modulare, automatico e di rete), precedentemente denominato NBS-C-RAM (contro-razzo, artiglieria e mortaio), è l'ultimo sistema di protezione a corto raggio dell'Aeronautica tedesca, destinato alla difesa aerea delle basi, in particolare in Afghanistan. È prodotto da Rheinmetall Air Defence, una filiale di Rheinmetall in Germania. Fa parte del futuro progetto di difesa aerea SysFla dell'aeronautica.
Il sistema NBS C-RAM dovrebbe rilevare, tracciare e abbattere i proiettili in arrivo prima che possano raggiungere il loro bersaglio entro una distanza molto ravvicinata. Il sistema stesso è basato sul sistema di difesa aerea Skyshield di Oerlikon Contraves.
Un sistema C-RAM NBS è composto da sei cannoni automatici da 35 mm (in grado di sparare 1.000 colpi al minuto), un'unità di controllo a terra e due unità sensore. L'intero sistema è completamente automatizzato. Le armi sparano munizioni programmabili "Ahead", sviluppate da Rheinmetall Weapons and Munitions - Switzerland (ex Oerlikon Contraeves Pyrotec). Le riservette contengono 152 proiettili al tungsteno del peso di 3,3 g ciascuno.
Originariamente, l'esercito tedesco ordinò un primo lotto di due sistemi nel 2009, con altri due seguiti nel 2013. Tutti i sistemi MANTIS sono stati trasferiti all'aviazione tedesca, che ora è responsabile di tutte le attività di difesa aerea. I primi due sistemi costano circa € 110,8 milioni, più altri € 20 milioni per scopi di formazione e documentazione. In un contratto successivo, del valore di circa 13,4 milioni di euro, Rheinmetall consegnerà anche le munizioni corrispondenti all'esercito tedesco.
La Bundeswehr tedesca ha rilevato il primo sistema MANTIS il 1º gennaio 2011.
