Korean Air and Missile Defense
The KAMD (Korean Air and Missile Defense; Korean: 한국형 미사일 방어 체계) is a multilayered air defense system being developed by South Korea. It integrates command, detection, and interception systems to provide comprehensive protection. It consists of LAMD, M-SAM, L-SAM, etc. KAMD is a key component of South Korea's three-axis defense strategy, designed to counter North Korea's nuclear threats. This positions South Korea as the third country, after the U.S. and Israel, to operate a multilayered air defense system using domestically developed interceptors.
