Sistem rudal SAMP/T ainonline |
International Military - Surface to Air Missile Platform/Terrain (SAMP/T) is indeed one of the most advanced missile systems. From being labeled as the most advanced missile system, the SAMP/T has several very superior components.
Quoted from the mbda-systems page, the SAMP/T missile system has an Aster 30 type missile. With the Aster 30 missile, the attack power of the SAMP/T missile system is very fast and far. Then, the SAMP/T missile system has a sophisticated radar unit called Arabel, which is quite famous.
From the combination of missiles and radar, it is clear that the SAMP/T missiles are reliable enough to maintain air space. Moreover, there is information that explains that Turkey is attracted to the SAMP/T missile system.
According to dailysabah, Turkey is likely to purchase the SAMP/T missile system from the Franco-Italian Eurosam consortium. From this explanation, Turkey may add another S-400 missile system with SAMP/T.
There is information alleging that Turkey's move to buy the SAMP/T missile system is due to sanctions affecting its S-400. And it could be that the Russo-Ukrainian war has an impact on the spare parts and operational preparations of Turkey's S-400 missile system.
So it could be that Turkey is planning to buy the SAMP/T missile system for air defense countermeasures. Because the SAMP/T missile system has a series of advantages that are quite high quality.
The number of advantages of the quality of the SAMP/T missile system is a matter of operational readiness. Described on the ainonline page, the SAMP/T missile system apparently only requires quite a few personnel. From the minimum crew, the crew of the SAMP/T missile system consists of 1 team commander, 1 head of the launcher module team, 2 air defense systems specialists, and 2 air defense weapons specialists.
With the minimal crew of the SAMP/T missile system it is clear that all the advanced technology is in the SAMP/T missile system. Moreover, if the SAMP/T missile system has a fairly sophisticated quality in terms of repelling air attacks.
Therefore the SAMP/T missile system was able to reach targets at an altitude of 60,000 feet (18.2 km). Not only is the range high, but the SAMP/T missile system is capable of repelling targets at a distance of 70 km.
As a result of this sophistication, it is appropriate for Singapore to use the SAMP/T missile system as its flagship. Therefore, we wait for Turkey's next step in acquiring the SAMP/T missile system. If Turkey later buys the SAMP/T missile system, it is clear that Turkish airspace will be safe from several threats.
