On a separate issue, this what I tried to convey concerning the
German PATRIOT System as being mobile as the picture shows where Germany is sending more of those systems to the Ukraine.
Europe was smart enough to figure out that since so many of their countries are so small a more mobile PATRIOT (
NASAMS, IRIS-T, IRON DOME etc. ) system was needed to shoot and scoot with a reload capability of less than 15 minutes.

PATRIOT with a truck and trailer is much less maneuverable and much more time consuming in set up and reloading even though the PATRIOT can be fired while
trailer mounted.

The German
MAN 8x8 (And the others named above.) doesn't have those limitations to include they're much faster as well.
