The AMX-30R (Roland) surface-to-air missile launching system, is based on the AMX-30 main battle tank designed by GIAT for the French Army. Five vehicles of a pre-series were completed by 1977 and then evaluated, prompting the order of 183 vehicles that same year. The Roland includes a rectangular superstructure which houses the radar system and mounts two launching tubes on either side, with an autoloading system feeding from an eight missile reserve inside the superstructure. The Roland's exploration radar has a detection range of 16 kilometers (9.9 mi).
Designed as a main battle tank for the French Army the AMX-30 prototype was completed in 1961 and the type entered full-scale production in 1966. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
