General Calls For Integrated Approach To Air Defense Challenges
The US Army is seeking a comprehensive missile defeat strategy to address critical gaps in its air defense capabilities, according to Lt. Gen. John Rafferty. The strategy would integrate interceptors, non-kinetic effects, and data-driven targeting to provide a more effective and sustainable solution. Rafferty’s comments come amid concerns over dwindling munition stockpiles and the need for a more adaptable approach to air defense. The Army’s efforts to develop a comprehensive strategy were first reported by Breaking Defense.
