More and more sophisticated weapons for Ukraine to deter Russian aggressors: The acronym stands for Nassams and the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System and refers to the more advanced anti-aircraft system of the American Raytheon (developed exactly 100 years ago) and the Norwegian Kada.

US ready to send Nassams missiles to Kiev

Two batteries of the latest generation, the third since the first version of the Nassams system in operation since 1998, arrived in Ukraine after the order began in July, while four more were commissioned by the Ukrainian government after US President Joe Biden gave the green light.

Nassams missiles, how they work

The performance of this platform is the automatic guidance of anti-missile missiles, but anti-drone and anti-aircraft are entrusted to the “dialogue” between information from ground or air radars (installed on Awacs aircraft) and satellite networks.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the entire American intelligence system has been accused by Moscow of supporting Kiev troops with GhostEye radars and high-powered laser systems: it is possible to shoot down even the creation of drones.
