The RBS 90 fully auto- nomous air defence missi- -proven right le system meets all these requirements. It integrates awhispering 3-D search and acquisition radar, low energy laser beam guidance and passive tracking with TV/TIS to ensure extremely low signature and high-level jamming resistance - and it's even safe from anti-radiation missiles. Its Missile Mk 2 carries a combined warhead with laser proximity fuze that'll tackle any aerial threat. The RBS 90 is an air defence system made for the modern battlefield plus it's cost effective with low-cost training and low life cycle costs.
