Indians For Guns

The MIM-104 Patriot is a surface-to-air missile (SAM) system, the primary of its kind used by the United States Army and several allied nations. It is manufactured by the Raytheon Company of the United States, and derives its name from the national football league (NFL) football franchise nearest the company headquarters in Cambridge, MA. The Patriot System replaced the Nike Hercules system as the U.S. Army's primary High to Medium Air Defense (HIMAD) system, and replaced the MIM-23 Hawk system as the U.S. Army's medium tactical air defense system. In addition to these roles, Patriot has been given the function of the U.S. Army's anti-ballistic missile (ABM) system, which is now Patriot's primary mission.

They might not be the latest in high tech anymore but they were very effective in Gulf War 1 against Iraqi Scuds. They were and still are used by Israel and the US. Having technology proven to operate in harsh conditions and in the crucible of battle is nothing to sneer at (I'm not implying that you were sneering, Doc).
