New Delhi, Sept 12 : The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) has ordered a number of Italian made MBDA Spada 2000 air defence system to meet its requirement of low to medium air defence.
The new system will be replacing the old French Crotale air defence systems. BDA Spada 2000 was evaluated by the PAF officials in 2006 and was selected for acquisition beating Raytheon SL-AMRAAM and German Diehl BGT IRIS-t SL air defence systems.
The Spada 2000 is an all-weather, day and night, highly automated, air defence system which has quick reaction time and requires very few operators to man the system. The system can engage up to 4 targets simultaneously, and has the track range of 60KM while it can intercept a target at 25KM accurately.
