HMS Dauntless has conducted firing exercise against aircraft as part of rigorous testing.
As informed, the testing of Phalanx Close-in Weapons Systems (CIWS) occurred last week. The weapons successfully tracked aircraft simulating attacks on the ship before being test fired against surface and air targets.
The testing happened after the vessel underwent the upgrade under the Power Improvement Project (PIP).
