Rotating rapid-firing defense weapon system

Abstract

Guns are fired simultaneously from a rotating platform. This is primarily a last-ditch, defense weapon system to protect the Navy's aircraft carriers and the Marine Corps amphibious landings: This system would have the ability to destroy all of many incoming ballistic missiles and bombs, and their fragmentation over a wide area. The ships are out at sea and are moving; falling debris is only a minor problem compared to getting hit by a bomb or missile. A land or port version of this system may be of some interest; such as a system on a mobile water platform or vehicle. The system could certainly knock down a swarm of hostile unmanned aerial vehicles.

I claim: 
     
         1 ) A rapid-firing defense weapon system having guns mounted on a platform and comprising:
 a) each said gun is mounted around the outer portion of said platform;   b) each said gun has its own ammunition drum;   c) each said gun has a power source;   d) mounted on a support column is remote receivers with their control cables, and   e) a central control room is physically connected to said system.   
     
     
         2 ) A rapid-firing defense weapon system having guns mounted on a platform, as claimed in  claim 1 , said power source for each said gun farther comprising, a small fuel engine that power a generator. 
     
     
         3 ) A rapid-firing defense weapon system having guns mounted on a platform, as claimed in  claim 1 , said control room further comprising control panels and video screens.
