PATRIOT PROD IMP PGM

Abstract

Project 036: PATRIOT is an advanced Surface-to-Air guided missile system with a high probability of kill capable of operation in the presence of Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and able to conduct multiple simultaneous engagements against high performance air breathing targets and ballistic missiles likely to be encountered by US Forces. The PATRIOT Product Improvement Program provides for the upgrade of the PATRIOT System through individual materiel changes. These improvements focus on the evolving threat and will provide a more robust capability and the foundation upon which future improvements can more readily be incorporated with minimal hardware changes. Efforts will be made to expedite Patriot materiel solutions (e.g. Radar Digital Processor, Communications Upgrades, Radars on the Net) to both enhance capability and facilitate integration into the IAMD architecture.
