As nations improve the intelligence sensors and micro-PGMs on sUAS platforms, the US military will need to mature its
SHORAD and C-UAS capabilities to protect ground troops from enemy sUAS CAS and surveillance.
The third layer is furnished by the Osa-AKM and S-125 Pechora-2M
SHORAD systems.
Considerations such as those discussed above are at the heart of MBDA's two new families of
SHORAD systems: the EMADS (Enhanced Modular Air Defence Solutions) and MICA (Missile d'Interception, de Combat et d'Autodefense/Interception, Combat and Self-Defence Missile" (see below).
The RSADF maintains an inventory of gun systems, self-propelled
SHORAD systems, and HIMAD missile systems.
According to Alan, the MoD has allocated CZK10 billion (USD450 million) for procuring a new
SHORAD SAM system with a range of 14,000 m and would like to equip the 25th ADM Regiment with four batteries, each equipped with up to eight ready-to-fire missiles [Janes].
Numerous opportunities might arise from naval applications, from the Avenger system that is part of the FMS portfolio, as well as from
shorad systems integrated with light sensors and fire control systems.
The Polish Army took possession in December of its first Loara short-range air-defense (
SHORAD) gun system, developed and produced by Radwar SA (Warsaw, Poland).

Although some
SHORAD units are equipped with JTIDS terminals, many have yet to be outfitted.
The presentation will cover: The role and priorities for the cross-functional team (CFT) for AMD, The importance of ensuring maximum efficiency of existing systems, Developing communication between THAAD and Patriot assets for better operational capability and a better picture of incoming threats, Ramifications and benefits for the integrated Air and Missile Defence Battle Command System (IBCS) and Acquiring
SHORAD capabilities in 2018 to fulfil requirements.
