MISSION

Avenger counter low-altitude unmanned aircraft systems, high-speed fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft, reconnaissance, intelligence, surveillance and target acquisition assets. Avenger is a versatile system organized as Battalions in the Army National Guard and part of a Composite Patriot or Indirect Fire Protection Capability Battalion in the active component. The Army active component no longer has pure Avenger Battalions.

While conducting these Air Defense missions, Avenger operates within the five tenets of Army operations: initiative, agility, depth, synchronization, and versatility.

ROLES

Avenger is the Short Range A D (SHORAD) system best suited to provide air defense to maneuver commanders. Avenger forces protect maneuver elements during lodgment, early entry operations, shaping activities against fixed and rotary-wing aircraft attacks, cruise missile attacks, and observation by surveillance platforms. While able to operate as an independent battalion, batteries or Avenger teams, it may also be task organized with other ADA systems. Avenger can deploy to secure Patriot’s operational area from threat sets where Patriot cannot defend.
