The recent upgrade purchase of the PAC-3 Patriot missiles and the Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) system procurements have highlighted the increasingly complex and efficient air-based threats prevalent today.

These assessments are critical to ensuring the protection of airspace and maintaining national security.
