Short Range Ground Based Air Defence
LAND 19 Phase 7B will deliver Army’s new Short Range Ground Based Air Defence system, which will form a component of the Joint Integrated Air and Missile Defence (JIAMD) capability.
This project will replace the current Short Range Air Defence (SHORAD) capability, including the RBS-70, as the Army's principal air defence weapon. While the new capability will be able to operate independently, it will be designed to operate as the inner layer of the broader JIAMD capability.
