Land Ceptor is from the same family of weapons systems as Sea Ceptor, which will defend the Royal Navy’s Type 23 and Type 26 Frigates.
Land Ceptor will provide the stopping power within the cutting-edge Sky Sabre air defence system and will be crewed by 16th Regiment Royal Artillery.
Built by MBDA, Land Ceptor comprises the Common Anti-air Modular Missile (CAMM), a launcher vehicle and two fire unit support vehicles.
It is being developed to protect British troops on operations from aerial threats, including hostile combat aircraft and air-launched munitions.
