Aegis Ashore

Aegis Ashore is a land-based missile defense system designed to detect, track, and intercept incoming ballistic missiles before they reach their targets. It uses advanced radar and missile technology to provide protection against potential threats, particularly from regions like North Korea and Iran. Originating from naval systems used on ships, Aegis Ashore is adapted for fixed installation on land, serving as a critical part of national defense by enhancing missile defense coverage and homeland security.
