December 13, 2024 : "The Marine Corps has fielded a mobile, drone-killing air defense system to its 3rd Littoral Anti-Air Battalion in Hawaii, the service announced, with the system expected to achieve initial operational capability later today. " ~ Inside Defense
The system in question is MADIS (Marine Air Defense Integrated Systems) -- it uses the JLTV as the base platform and it appears the platform that was IOCed is:

AN/MSY2(v)2 (aka MADIS MK2) which is the dedicated C-UAS configuration featuring 360° #AESA radar, EO/IR, EW suite, & 30x113mm gun + two stinger missiles.

I may have covered this earlier in the thread. IDK.
