In the next few years poland will probably be the most heavily armed nation on the whole European continent.

Why would anyone spend multi million dollars interceptor for cheap drones?

PAC-3's main role is missile defence with excellent ABM as well as low flying cruise missile interception capability.

And MSE modification gives it superior anti aircraft capability as well.

For cheap drones you will need triple A guns. ( which can be easily procured )

It seems the Saudis have no way of intercepting them when their facilities were hit or where those triple A guns are at. Even a Ukrainian SAM ended up in Poland killing someone and they have those systems active.

Pac 3 MSE is İskander hunter.

I wish Ukraine to have.

 

[blackjack]

more like Iranian drones and misfired Ukrainian SAMs are patiot hunters. I dont think patriots has intercepted missiles with high G manuever capabilties AFAIK. If I remember correctly, I think Turkey dropped the patriot deal for S-400?

Poland will have the best air defence coverage in Euopre.

 

[MaciekRS]

Well, right now we have one of the worst air defence in Europe. We didnt even have S 300 that Ukraine has.
