General information

The ADATS (Air Defense Anti-Tank System) is an American dual-mode missile system designed to detect and engage high-speed and low-speed aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, and armored ground targets. The ADATS has a modular design that allows it to be mounted on various types of tracked and wheeled vehicles. The system includes eight surface-to-air missiles in transport-launch containers, a targeting radar and missile guidance system, a control computer, jam-resistant communications and data transmission equipment to coordinate actions between ADATS complexes, and other necessary equipment. The US Army variant was to be delivered on the M3 Bradley IFV chassis, with the addition of a 25 mm automatic cannon and a 12.7 mm machine gun. However, due to budget cuts, shifting defense priorities after the Cold War, and performance problems in adverse weather conditions revealed during testing, the US Army canceled the ADATS program in the early 1990s, and the produced units were never fielded.

The ADATS was introduced in Update 1.89 "Imperial Navy". Unlike other SAM systems found in the tech trees of various nations, the ADATS not only serves its primary role as an anti-aircraft weapon, but can also act as a tank destroyer thanks to its MIM146 guided missile. This missile has a warhead equivalent to 7.86 kg of TNT and is capable of penetrating up to 900 mm of armor. Regarding its anti-aircraft capabilities, the maximum engagement range is 10 km, which can sometimes be insufficient to effectively neutralize enemy aircraft.
