SRAM Low Cost Missile Defense Targets

For 35 years Orbital’s Launch Systems Group has


demonstrated unequaled capability in utilizing de-
commissioned tactical and strategic missile assets
to develop new low-cost flight vehicles. Orbital
extends this proven development philosophy to the
AGM-69A Short Range Attack Missile (SRAM). A
modernized SRAM provides a flexible threat rep-
resentative target at a fraction of the cost of other
PAYLOAD
targets.
