This is a Russian Corvette with an A-190 100mm gun firing at more than 60-70 rounds per minute.
The inaccuracy aside, wouldn't the smoke get in the way of sensors? Would you even use it if it masks the sensors of other guns like CIWS in case you are firing at a missile coming at the ship?
Why not just buy Chinese?

CIWS sensors are mmW radar IIRC, they would see right through the smoke.

I guess the russians haven't developed smokeless powder, but in most cases the ship would be moving so you would build such a big cloud.

So why shouldn't we be building fleets of hydrofoil lightweight attack craft armed with these cannons and a reduced RCS?

Does firing the main gun as air defense even help?
>>
>>34327619
Jesus, it would shred one of our ships.

It's an old gun, other 100mm guns from India and France can also do that speed at a sustained rate and but with better accuracy.
Here's the gun doing 80 rpm.

Because missiles are better

Not true. Palma/Palash is fully optical with laser beam riding. It's mpt Kashtan/Kortik.

No. CIWS sensors working in IR.

By the way, accorting to the news this ship hits the antiship missile by the A-190.

I guess this video shows this test.

Is that not a smoke?

Oh, god, kill the idiots.

>>34328176
Wrong, it did not hit the missile.
You can see on the background the Termit missile it was supposed to hit.
Inaccurate as fuck.

I've seen photos of Chinese ships doing better than this. Don't type if you don't know anything about the subject matter.
>>
>>34327619
even their warships seem to have similar smoke problem
wtf Russian??
>>
>>34328823
Smoke is fine.
>>
>>34328833
check the other decent modernized navies
they don't have this sort of smoke obscuring the view "problem".

You'll learn to live with it. As long as the ship does what it's supposed to do. Smoke is fine.
>>
>>34327619
And this is why modern warships only need one turret
