Product Name: Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)
Manufacturer Name: L3Harris Technologies
Product Description: The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system is a cutting-edge missile defense technology designed to intercept and destroy incoming ballistic missiles both inside and outside the Earth’s atmosphere. Its mobile and rapidly deployable nature allows it to protect military forces, civilian populations, and critical infrastructure within hours of deployment. THAAD boasts advanced features such as hit-to-kill precision, attitude and axial control, and a reliable history of performance. L3Harris plays a vital role in this system by providing the solid rocket booster motor technology and the Divert and Attitude Control System (DACS), which enables precise maneuvering of the interceptor through six thrusters for optimal target engagement. The DACS ensures effective stabilization and positioning of the kill vehicle, allowing it to successfully counter threats across a wide range of challenging environments.
