Mobile SAM Launcher
From Conflict of Nations Wiki
Description
The Mobile Surface-to-Air Missile Launchers provide mobile, medium-range air defense protection against Missile systems and fixed-wing fighters. Incorporating a radar system which detects air, ground, and naval units, they are also effective against cruise missiles. They are capable of air assault as well as strategic airlift, the latter being essential if you intend on spreading your cities far and wide.
