Chazman.. That is a Vulcan Sea Cannon...I think it is nearly identical to a Phalanx. the ships were built in the US.

No the actual Phalanx, that doesn't look like a 20 MM gatling gun.

It's Phalanx. The barrel is simply under "tarp barrel bag" (sorry, I don't know the term for it)

Got it, thanks guys!
