At
Paris Air Show 2011, Thales presents the MMS Multi-Mission
System ground and air defense missile system. Threats to
civilians and military forces are changing and the diversity
of these threats can only be defeated by truly flexible
and rapidly deployed defence and security systems. MMS is
a unique lightweight, vehicle based, highly automated system
capable of delivering a rapid reaction response to threats
from the air or the ground.

MMS
can be integrated into a network enabled force structure
and be coordinated with Early Warning Command and Control
(C2) systems or it can operate in an autonomous mode for
specific missions.
Equipped with the Starstreak missile or other missile
systems such as anti-armour systems, or rocket systems,
MMS will have the ability to take on a wide spectrum of
targets such as Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC), static
installations and terrorist platforms, as well as air
threats, such as UAV’s and pop-up helicopters.
With the increasing need for Force Protection against
conventional and asymmetric threats, MMS provides the
multi-mission effects demanded by modern forces.
