Raytheon Company's RTN
new-production Patriot Air and Missile Defense System has received the U.S.
Army's final stamp of approval after undergoing stringent testing. During the
testing, Patriot's performance was outstanding when subjected to challenging
climatic and electromagnetic environments.
"This approval validates the modernized Patriot system's readiness to counter
evolving threats and protect warfighters and allies in a combat situation,"
said Sanjay Kapoor, vice president for Integrated Air and Missile Defense at
Raytheon's Integrated Defense Systems business. "This will only build on the
confidence that our Patriot partners have in the system's performance and
reliability, a confidence we look forward to extending to the partners who
join the Patriot family."
Since last year, the Patriot system has undergone the U.S. Army's rigorous
testing of every component of the modernized system. Patriot performance
consistently exceeded expectations in all eight flight tests in a variety of
terrain and weather conditions.
