- Abstract
Battlefield is a dangerous zone for the ground troops, even outside of the fight actions. The aerial threat imposes to every unit to take air-defense measures. That refers to much type of targets, against which the weapons hit / kill probability are so different. Most actually solutions are based on small caliber anti-aircraft guns or on VSHORAD missile systems. All these systems have engagement peculiarities and some efficacy limitations result. By integration of guns and missiles in mixed air-defense systems, the characteristics of both equipment can be optimal used, allowing to the troops much coverage and efficacy. The paperwork presents some basic considerations of the mixed-AD systems theory and two Romanian developments also.
