The Patriot PAC-3, an advanced version of the Patriot air defense missile system, was developed by Raytheon, an American defense contractor. The PAC-3 system was designed to improve the capabilities of the original Patriot missile, with a focus on enhanced accuracy and effectiveness against ballistic missiles. This upgraded system entered into service in 2001, providing better protection and interception capabilities for its operators.
The Army Tactical Missile System (MGM-140 ATACMS) is a short-range tactical ballistic missile system developed by the United States Army. Its primary purpose is to provide a precision-strike capability for ground forces, enabling them to engage high-value targets at long ranges with precision and minimal collateral damage. The development of the ATACMS began in the late 1970s as a response to the growing need for a highly mobile and accurate tactical ballistic missile system to support the United States Army's field operations.
The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) serves as a guidance system, transforming unguided or "dumb" bombs into all-weather, precision-guided weaponry. This technology was collaboratively developed by the United States Air Force and the United States Navy. The initial delivery of JDAMs took place in 1997, followed by operational testing in 1998 and 1999.
The GLSDB (Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb) is a long-range, precision-guided weapon system developed jointly by the United States and Sweden. It combines the proven capabilities of two existing weapon systems: the GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) and the M26 rocket motor from the M270 MLRS (Multiple Launch Rocket System).
The M270A1 is an upgraded version of the American-made M270 MLRS (Multiple Launch Rocket System) designed and manufactured by the U.S. Company Lockheed Martin. The M270A1 MLRS is a combat-proven, mechanized artillery weapon system that provides the combat commander with highly lethal, all-weather, precise rocket and missile fires that defeat point and area targets in both urban/complex and open terrain.
The FIM-92 Stinger is a man-portable surface-to-air missile system (MANPADS) that was designed and manufactured by the American Defense Industry. The Stinger was the successor to the Redeye Weapon System, the Stinger missile provides forward, short-range air defense against low-altitude airborne targets. The system enters in service with the U.S. Army in 1981.
The M270 is a combat-proven 227mm Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) artillery vehicle manufactured by Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. This artillery system is operational in the US Army, and fourteen countries have fielded or ordered MLRS: Bahrain, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Japan, South Korea, The Netherlands, Norway, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.
The HAWK (Homing All the Way Killer) MIM-23 is an all-weather low to medium-altitude ground-to-air missile system developed and designed by the American Defence Company Raytheon. The HAWK semi-active radar seeking medium-range SAM system commenced development in 1952 with the US Army awarding a full-scale development contract to Raytheon for the missile in July 1954.
The MEADS (Medium Extend Air Defense System) is a mobile Air and Missile Defense System that is easily transportable, tactically mobile and uses the hit-to-kill PAC-3 MSE Missile to defeat tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles and aircraft, providing full 360-degree engagement.
The Avenger AN/TWQ-1 Air Defense System vehicle is a missile-mounted system that provides mobile, short-range air defense protection for ground units against cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, low-flying fixed-wing aircraft, and helicopters.
The MIM-104 Patriot is an air defense missile (SAM) system, the primary of its kind used by the United States Army and several allied nations. Patriot uses an advanced aerial interceptor missile and high-performance radar systems.
