  B-12. C-RAM is a system-of-systems that consists of sensor, interceptor, and C2 systems. It is a fast reacting,
  short-range system used to detect and destroy incoming rockets and artillery and mortar rounds in the air
  before they hit their ground targets, or simply to provide early warning. C-RAM is organized as an intercept
  battery and deploys as a battery or a platoon. For more information on the C-RAM system see ATP 3-01.81.
  B-13. The C-RAM intercept system has an integral sensor for targeting and uses the Land-based Phalanx
  Weapon System (LPWS), a multi-barrel 20-millimeter gun system, to destroy RAM threats. The LPWS is
  shown in figure B-6 on page B-8.
  B-14. C-RAM leverages ADA and field artillery sensors to provide alerting and cueing of incoming threats.
  The Sentinel radar and AN/TSQ-50 Lightweight Counter-Mortar Radar (LCMR) are organic to the C-RAM
  formation; C-RAM pulls data from the AN/TSQ-53 Firefinder radar while Firefinder is executing is primary
  counterfire mission. C-RAM C2, a FAAD C2 variant with specific C-RAM modifications, provides the
  requisite battle management.
