Acquisition of the Surface-Launched Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile

Abstract

Mission and System Description. The SLAMRAAM is an air defense system that the Army is developing to protect U.S. and friendly forces from aerial surveillance and air attack by cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned combat aerial vehicles, and rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft. The SLAMRAAM will provide the Army with the means to prevent enemies from penetrating friendly forces, while freeing commanders to synchronize movement and firepower. The Army will employ the SLAMRAAM in units that are integrated in a netted and distributed architecture linked to other Army, interagency, joint, and multinational forces.
