My compliments to SP Guide Publications for informative and credible reportage on contemporary aerospace issues over the past six decades.
It is recognised that there is an ever increasing level of hostile threats to fixed wing aircraft and helicopters in both military operational and civil scenarios globally. According to estimates there are more than 500,000 shoulder launched surface to air missiles, Man-Portable Air Defence Systems (MANPADS) on the international market and due to conflicts, many of these systems are now in the possession of non-state organisations and Terrorists.
Even though a high percentage of aircraft losses in the most recent hostilities were caused by Infrared Surface to-Air Missiles (IR SAMs), laser and radar threats are increasing in the theatre of operations. To reliably detect and counter, a broad range of potential threats, AMPS offers combination of different sensors to guarantee the best possible protection.
