I believe MAMBA is just the British version of ARTHUR.
Don't know if it's better/worse, or the same...
We use ARTHUR on BV206 in Norway, and the accuracy is quite impressive.
I can't give you any technical details, other than what you can find on official sites, since most of the info is classified

But it can certainly tell the difference between a bird and a shell..
How many birds do you know that travels over 200 meters/second..
And it doesn't need to "see" the missile/shell very long in order to calculate where it's fired from and where it's going to land.
