About this report
Integrated air and missile defence is structurally vulnerable when it cannot sustain continuous, engagement-relevant detection and tracking across all azimuths and relevant elevation angles within the defended volume.
The central failure mode is not the limitation of a single radar platform, but a network-level surveillance deficit in which one or more approach sectors are intermittently unobserved, observed too late, or observed with insufficient track quality to support timely engagement decisions.
Key questions this report answers
- What performance requirements and adequacy thresholds define 360-degree radar coverage for integrated air and missile defence?
- Why is the network-level surveillance deficit, rather than single-radar limits, the central failure mode?
- What system architecture, components and integration dependencies underpin continuous all-azimuth detection and tracking?
- What industrial-base, value-chain and sustainment bottlenecks affect this capability and its actors?
Inside this report
- Performance Requirements and Adequacy Thresholds
- System Architecture, Components and Integration Dependencies

Who it's for
Strategy, corporate-development and investment teams that need an ecosystem-level view — budgets, industrial capacity and technology landscapes — before committing capital or capacity.
