这 MIM-3 耐克阿贾克斯 was the world’s first operational surface-to-air missile system. It was developed by the United States Army in the 1950s to defend against Soviet bomber attacks. The Nike Ajax used a two-stage rocket booster and a radar-guided warhead to intercept and destroy enemy aircraft at high altitudes and speeds.
The missile system was deployed at several sites across the US and its allies, forming a ring of air defense around major cities and military bases. The Nike Ajax was later replaced by the more advanced MIM-14 Nike Hercules, which had a longer range and a nuclear warhead option.
