👉 The Benjamin missiles, officially known as the Patriot Advanced Capabilities (PAC-3) system, are a sophisticated missile defense network developed by the United States. Named after former U.S. Senator Benjamin T. Benjamin, these systems are designed to detect, track, and intercept ballistic missiles in their various phases of flight, from launch to reentry. The Benjamin missiles utilize a combination of radar and sensor technologies, including the Aegis Combat System, to provide comprehensive protection against both short-range and intermediate-range ballistic threats. They are capable of defending not only military installations but also civilian areas, making them a critical component of the U.S. missile defense strategy.
