Eurosam's ground-launched system comprises:
SAMP/T
State of the art GBAD system, with dual ABT and ATBM capability, SAMP/T is a fully autonomous, self-propelled system, with truck-mounted modules. A system typically includes a Fire Control Unit, with a multi-function radar (MRI) and an Engagement Module (ME), and launching elements, with up to 6 vertical launch platforms (MLT) using Aster 30 missiles. SAMP/T boasts a unique capability to simultaneously engage TBM and ABT, from any direction.
When integrated into a higher echelon battle management system, including early warning capabilities, or when using a dedicated long-range radar for cueing purposes, SAMP/T provides ABT intercept capability beyond 100 km and ATBM capability against threat in the 600 km range class. ATBM features have been demonstrated in live firings.
