Air Defense guns and missiles

Article Abstract:

Guns and missiles are very essential for a complete air defense, as they complement each other in terms of range time of reaction, lethality and resistance to counter measures. The complementary gun and missiles are the best solutions to achieve a robust air defense, capable of enough flexibility to face unconventional air or surface threats, as well as to work in difficult operational conditions such as the littoral waters and the other-than war operation.
