The Patriot is the Army’s primary surface-to-air missile system and also functions as an anti-ballistic missile system, which protects the base from air and missile attacks. The Patriot is the only anti-ballistic missile system to have successfully engaged and destroyed a tactical ballistic missile in combat. (U.S Air Force photo/Senior Airman Jared Trimarchi)
