I became a bit miffed when I looked around the globe and saw some of the air defense systems that our allies were putting into production. Don't get me wrong. I fully acknowledge that we have the carrier battle groups and perhaps our Division and higher command centers protected by Patriots and Aegis missile systems. What concerned me was the seeming lack of coverage for the forward operating units in the attack/defense.
Let me introduce you to a capable looking system that I never heard of...the EAPS system.

Looks to be great against RAM threats, but I'm not seeing anything on its effectiveness against aircraft. Not really sure it qualifies as an 'air defence system'. :P
