 Massive Growth for Air Defence Systems Industry

A surface-to-air missile (SAM), also known as a surface-to-air missile (GTAM) or surface-to-air missile (SAGW), is a missile designed to be launched from the ground to target aircraft destroy or other missiles. It's a type of anti-aircraft system; In modern armed forces, missiles have replaced most other forms of dedicated anti-aircraft weapons, with anti-aircraft guns being pushed into more specialized roles.

The first serious attempts at SAM development took place during World War II, although no operating systems were introduced. Further development in the 1940s and 1950s led to most major armed forces adopting operational systems in the second half of the 1950s. Smaller systems suitable for close-range work evolved into modern human-portable systems in the 1960s and 1970s. Ship-based systems followed the evolution of land-based models, beginning with long-range weapons and steadily evolving into smaller designs to provide layered defenses. This evolution in design has increasingly pushed weapon-based systems into the shortest-range roles.

The American Nike Ajax was the first operational missile SAM system, and the Soviet Union's S-75 Dvina was the most widely produced SAM. Widespread modern examples include the long-range Patriot and S-300 systems, the SM-6 and MBDA Aster Missile naval missiles, and short-range man-portable systems such as the Stinger and Strela-3.
