Why Does SAMP/T Missile System Better Than Patriot Missile?
The SAMP/T, also known as MAMBA in the French military, is a theatre anti-missile system manufactured by Eurosam, a 50:50 joint venture between MBDA and Thales.
It is intended to defend the critical fixed assets and deployed troops against all present and potential airborne threats, including cruise missiles, manned and unmanned aircraft, and tactical ballistic missiles.
Also, the SAMP/T can function in areas with heavy electronic countermeasures and extreme clutter.
The SAMP/T was operationally deployed by the French Army and Air Force, as well as the Italian Army, in 2011. The system is interoperable with other NATO air defense systems.
It can be entirely flown by a NATO tactical transport aircraft, such as the Airbus A400M and Lockheed-Martin C-130J Super Hercules.
Two essential parts of the SAMP/T system are the Aster 30 interceptor missile and the Arabel multi-purpose radar.
The Aster 30 missile can travel at a speed of 1.4 kilometers per second and can intercept targets at altitudes from 50 meters to 20 kilometers. It is a two-stage missile in which the booster steers the missile toward the target and separates a few seconds following the launch.
