Intercept: Most systems can be used in different phases of ballistic missile flight, i.e., boost [73] (where surface or air-launched anti-aircraft missiles might also be effective because the ballistic missile is moving relatively slowly at low altitude), requiring proximity to the launch site and immediate response, mid-course/exo-atmospheric ...

The anti-ballistic missile (ABM) capabilities of the S-400 system are near the maximum allowed under the (now void) Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. The new anti-ballistic missiles 77N6-N and 77N6-N1 to enter service in 2022 supposedly add inert/kinetic anti-ballistic capability to the S-400 system and are too large for SA-20. [ 66 ]
With the tense situations with China, Taiwan developed the Sky Bow (or Tien-Kung), this surface-to-air missile can intercept and destroy enemy aircraft and ballistic missiles. [76] These system was created in partnership with Raytheon Technologies , using Lockheed Martin ADAR-HP as inspiration to create the Chang Bai S-band radar system.
In the 1950s, a series of anti-aircraft missiles were developed as part of Project Nike. The latest in the series, Nike-Zeus, offered extremely long-range interception and very high performance. In the late 1950s, the program investigated the use of Nike-Zeus missiles as interceptors against Soviet ICBMs. A Nike warhead would be detonated at ...
Radd-2 Anti Aircraft Missile System based on Taer-2 Missile and carrier vehicle name Tabas Truck Launcher, also known as 2ND Khordad TEL. 3RD Khordad TEL System equipped with Opt-Electronic System and Taer-2 Missile and Sayyad-2C Missile which also known as Khordad-3 Missile System. Taer-1 Missile Specification: Range= 50 km Altitude= 25–27 km
Prior to the development of the Pongae-5 system, the anti-aircraft missile systems of North Korea were largely older Soviet types, such as the S-75, S-125 and the S-200. [3] These weapons have become dated, although the S-200 still has merits due to its long range of 300 km. [ 4 ] The appearance of the Pongae-5 was a significant development, as ...
The Boeing YAL-1 airborne laser testbed was a modified Boeing 747-400F with a megawatt-class chemical oxygen iodine laser (COIL) mounted inside. It was primarily designed to test its feasibility as a missile defense system to destroy tactical ballistic missiles (TBMs) while in boost phase.
