Why Does SAMP/T Missile System Better Than Patriot Missile?

The SAMP/T, also known as MAMBA in the French military, is a theatre anti-missile system manufactured by Eurosam, a 50:50 joint venture between MBDA and Thales.
It is intended to defend the critical fixed assets and deployed troops against all present and potential airborne threats, including cruise missiles, manned and unmanned aircraft, and tactical ballistic missiles.
Also, the SAMP/T can function in areas with heavy electronic countermeasures and extreme clutter.
The SAMP/T was operationally deployed by the French Army and Air Force, as well as the Italian Army, in 2011. The system is interoperable with other NATO air defense systems.
It can be entirely flown by a NATO tactical transport aircraft, such as the Airbus A400M and Lockheed-Martin C-130J Super Hercules.
Two essential parts of the SAMP/T system are the Aster 30 interceptor missile and the Arabel multi-purpose radar.
The Aster 30 missile can travel at a speed of 1.4 kilometers per second and can intercept targets at altitudes from 50 meters to 20 kilometers. It is a two-stage missile in which the booster steers the missile toward the target and separates a few seconds following the launch.

Correction. Samp/T is a system developed by Italy and France.

[@ericknkili]

Correction: The Aster 30 missile doesn't have a range of 186 Miles. It's official range is around 120 Km and 150 KM for the Aster 30 Block I NT.

[@donkeymarco]

Aster offical range is "in excess of 120km" in some datasheet or "In excess of 100 km" in other ones, real range it is not a public data. Maximum speed: Mach 4.5 and altitude 20 km. That is what can be found in MBDA or Eurosam websites.

[@charlesrichardson8635]

You are way off on several point, like number of missile per launcher. It depends on the missiles that are on the launcher, this varies from 4 to 16. The Aster 30 is impressive, do you know the cost? BTW, Patriot has the choice of 3 radar types like phased-array. Also the number of engagements per command post is higher than 8 Patriot. You seem to be using old specs. BUT I love the variation and effectiveness of the SAMP/T! Great collaboration between France and Italy!

[@lexzie9568]

Pac3 cri can be loaded up to 16 (40miles speed around Mach 4 PAC 3 mse can be loaded up to 12(75miles speed mach 4.7) (My explanation will be based on aster 30 alone might be too lengthy to go deep) While the old PAC 2 is loaded 4 max(99miles speed mach 2.5) Aster 30 (range around 150kilometer speed mach 4.5 in few seconds) Sampt has 5 launcher and 8 missiles per launcher max While patriots has 5 to 8 launcher total of over 100 PAC 3 cri Please get your information from reliable sources

[@flyblu80]

there would be discussion. in the meantime, a cost analysis needs to be done. Now both systems have a big problem to cover 360 degrees you need more batteries I think. Which for example the s300s cover with 1 battery. All Soviet and Russian equipment is to be verified as real and undeclared accuracy, reliability and effectiveness, I am also referring to the s400s. Now I don't think that in the West they are not capable of making worse radars than the Soviet/Russian ones. In terms of missiles, the Franco-Italian system is very expensive. The advantage is that it seems that an architecture has been created that can be improved and updated, therefore developable over time, and it all depends on the funds of these two nations and the society mbda. if on average when we talk about a US product, we say that the budget is not a primary aspect, when we talk about European countries I would say yes.

The Samp-T was developed by France and Italy, not only France.

[@FXGreggan.]

Sweden should have bought SAMP/T instead of the Patriot, it's a shame..

[@thebobcat1964]

Your a fool, I'm not buying a system that's never been tested in combat only in theory.

[@rikardnorlen752]

I was also for the SAMP/T but its quite comparable systems even though difficult to compare :) Sweden have the GEM-T and PAC-3 MSE so its a good system. But should have got PAAC-4 to save some money! Also would be better with 360 radar. Guess it will do!

[@RR-us2kp]

​@@thebobcat1964 tested in combat? How many nuclear weapons have been tested in combat? And yet UK, France, Russia and China operate them. Even the US modern nukes have never been used in combat. People are still paying for them

The Patriot is a air defense system not a nuclear system and it's been tested in combat.

[@sailor67duilio27]

Eurosam is working on an Aster Block 2 missile designed to fly nearly four times as high at over 230,000 feet. This new hit-to-kill exo-atmospheric interceptor would be capable of smacking down hypersonic missiles and ballistic missiles traveling at seven times the speed of sound. The Block 2 would amount to a European version of THAAD, except with 360 degree instead of 120 degrees coverage. Notably, Block 2 is described as capable of intercepting “3000-kilometer range missiles,” which lies at the definitional intersection of a “medium-range” and “intermediate-range” ballistic missile. Notably, the collapse of the INF treaty has lifted the ban on Russian deployment of such weapons.

[@rodgerbane3825]

You need someone to help with writing your headlines. The title of the video is incoherent. I take it English isn't the first language of whoever writes the headlines.

[@heathwilliams9754]

It's amazing how outdated all of this information is. 90 people to operate? A Patriot battery isn't even authorized that many. And that includes all the supply, admin, maintenance, and command personnel. Patriot can only hold 4 missiles per launcher? That hasn't been the case for about 20 years now! The PAC3 interceptor enabled each launcher to hold 16. The PAC3-MSE is an even more capable interceptor, for which a single launcher can hold a combination of PAC3 and PAC3-MSE interceptors. This channel is way outdated on information! At this point, you should probably be comparing the SAMP-T to THAAD. Even THAAD has been around for more than a decade and I guarantee it's far more capable than SAMP-T. And it's proven in real world engagements.

Your judgement is based on PAC 2 The patriots now uses a newly built pac3mse and PAC 3cri with around 70miles and 40 miles respectively and new radars plus When the pac3 was used in Iraq wars it was actually an anti aircraft weapon modified to hit ballistic missile so these new ones are several times better than you think

[@razanorjp2137]

But Patriot seems to be sufficient to stop the best hypersonic missiles, Aster is for stop ALIEN missiles

[@raidensergi2378]

The patriot systems that can do this Minimum has to be pac3+

Patriot systems must be pac3+ to have possibilities to intercept them. In Europe majority of them has Pac2 or Pac2 +. Thats the problem.

Yea, but it's not a real-world battle tested like the patriot

[@xenomorphelv4265]

France has nuclear warheads that have not been battle tested, would you still think it's not dangerous ? The fact aster30 has not been battle tested doesn't mean the system isn't working, it just means France didn't have to use it...yet.
