Not sure.. But a lot of the AAA has been converted from optical to Radar.. the recent exercises are testament to that.

so basically they operate by taking instructions from radar right!. can they also be operated automatically like the radars sees the target and then the gun automatically calculating it trajectory or altitude point its gun and start firing ??. has this thing been done by any country. i mean you have the goalkeeper installed on the ship they operate independently so may be same thing can be done with these guns .?
