Further to the thought
If C-UAS is a cross-domain problem then perhaps cross-domain solutions are a possibility.
The RS4 protector seems to be essentially the RWS on the TAPV as well as many other vehicles.
The PROTECTOR RS4 a highly flexible system designed for small and medium caliber weapons including mounting of coaxial weapons and Anti Tank Guided Missiles. An advanced and modular Sensor suite (Day, Night, LRF) enables unique and tailorable situational awareness. The fully stabilized 2 + 2 Axis (Detached Line of Sight) system enables the gunner to keep his sights on target, independent of ballistic solution for the weapon and ammunition in use. The system is platform-independent and can be operated both by land and sea platforms.
A 5th Generation Open Architecture fully GVA compliant Fire Control System with a user-oriented HMI enables integrations of:
DDS based Integrated Computer Systems (ICS) for exchange of targets and situational awareness
Battle Management Systems (BMS)
Defensive systems support: (APS, laser warning)
Situational awareness support and threats view
The PROTECTOR RWS includes a network-based Fire Control System which enables features like:
Multi User Capability (Commander, gunner and or other Crew members switch control of one RWS)
Multi Weapon Stations (One operator controls several RWS, in vehicle or for Camp- or Perimeter protection)
Network and Wireless operations (UGV or stationary platforms)
Manned-Unmanned Teaming capability for remote control on vehicle or by dismounted personnel
CUAS The PROTECTOR RS4 equipped with ethernet-based Collaborative Fire Control or paired with radar sensors, provides an extremely accurate solution for countering small and medium-size drones. The capability has been combat-proven through operational deployment in Ukraine
...
Is that the basis for training an element of a security force in LAA - C-UAS that can be transposed from a patrol vehicle around the docks, to a boat in the harbour, to a fixed battery on the docks to a ship at sea?
Could the same Fire Control System be used to manage larger calibre weapons as well as missiles and UAVs?
