im shocked that how easily you are satisfied with this news... let me remind you that it didnt happen during the peace time, it happened during the war and that ship was sent there to protect the water... also, they could share any picture after taking off systems.. as we all know that otherwise it will be a huge blow for their future sales..Probably entire self -defense system was turned off, even radar may be on stand by thus and unattended (according the investigation the officer disabled system and left his station)
It is ordinary for systems to remain on stand by or remain in power saving mode to save power.
Automation is important for this case, for system to detect a possible target and increase power supply by sending a command to gensets, activating ciws and ready to engage in 1-2 seconds.
With manual systems it takes 10-15 seconds at best case if all officers-engineers at their station.
And probably nowadays consoles are not split, rather merged and another officer can foresee and approval for engagement if the responsible one has missed it.
In most of the failed cases the phalanx was in stand by -disabled mode so it wasn't responsible for what happened.
