To provide command and control for the SAM systems, an order has been placed with Ericsson Microwave Systems of Sweden for an undisclosed quantity of Giraffe 40 radar systems. To improve naval air defence, Thailand has also ordered the SADRAL/Mistral anti-aircraft and anti-missile defence systems from Matra BAe Dynamics.
