Could you use an SPQ-9 Gunfire Director in place of SPY-3 with the BAE 155mm AGS? |

unknown. all ships with AGS equipped that have been completely designed into details, is the zumwalt. so SPY-3 is certain. SPG-60 or SPQ-9A are possible, because those were on the USS thorn AGS proposal.... but we do not know what additional equipment would be added for that system SPG-62 seems possible too, as the AGS lite concept was shown on a burke. this might have been the flight 3 burke, which has an new sensor suite planned, I don't recall which systems were in that right now. |

I was just curious because I was looking at the AGS Backfit drawings and wondering why there wern't any new directors despite the installation of the AGS. |

well, AGS is at least partially GPS guided, so it possible it needs no guidance from the ship at all.... but I do not know enough about the system to say for certain. |

SPG-62 has nothing to do with gun direction. All gunfire control is handled through SPY-1 and SPS-67.
