Provides the Marine Corps an organic, mobile, expeditionary, upgradable, and state of the art capability to protect maneuver forces, installations and other designated critical assets from Fixed Wing/Rotary Wing aircraft, and group 1-3 Unmanned Aircraft Systems. The capability comes in two system variants:
1) The Marine Air Defense Integrated System variant designed for sustained operations ashore, embarked, and aboard installations, and
2) a Light - Marine Air Defense Integrated System variant, primarily used by Marine Expeditionary Units (MEU) to provide the MEU Commander a flexible on-the-move capability internally transportable in organic USMC rotary-wing aircraft, working in concert with Navy systems to conduct Defense of Amphibious Task Forces missions.

Provides an Installation Counter small Unmanned Aircraft System (I-CsUAS):  The system delivers non-kinetic (current) and kinetic (future) C-sUAS capabilities designed to defeat group 1 and group 2 small UAS (sUAS) threats located within the vicinity of critical defended assets aboard Continental US and Overseas DoW installations. This system is comprised of modular and scalable components designed to effectively detect, track, identify, and defeat sUASs.

Designed to defend permanently and operationally fixed critical assets. The system will provide Fleet Marine Forces with the ability to detect, track, identify, engage, and defend against cruise missiles, tier 3-5 UASs, and other aerial threats. The Medium Range Intercept Capability (MRIC) system is comprised of the MRIC Expeditionary Launcher, interceptor missiles, Common Aviation Command and Control System, and mini-Battle Management Control. The Ground/Air Task Oriented Radar functions as MRIC’s fire control radar. The system is mobile and transportable via land and strategic/theater airlift.

Delivers man-portable systems that provide Marines of any Military Occupational Specialty the ability to detect, track, identify, and defeat group 1-2 sUAS using kinetic and non-kinetic effects. This is a short-range self-defense capability for small units. The system uses advanced sensors and signal processing algorithms to detect threats and provide cues for effectors.
