- Long Range: The Patriot is able to efficiently provide a large AA net/ Long range artillery support. Furthermore, as long as the missile system itself is protected, it can be used to suppress a very large number of hostiles in a huge area, delaying enemy advances and allowing allies to consolidate their own defensive positions.
- Size: Being extremely large as well as extremely heavy, the Patriot is difficult to reposition and thus vulnerable to counter-artillery fire.
Even as the Patriot was initially designed to only use KE missiles, the RnD Division quickly realised the importance of not being dependent on a particular company for munitions, and thus added the capacity to utilise third-party Missiles in an effort to make the Patriot Missile Launcher System a more attractive pitch for customers. Furthermore, It would later be incorporated with KE vehicles to allow for easier repositioning. The KE M1 is outfitted with a rotating launch system for 20 guided or 40 unguided thermobaric, AP or AA rockets. All rockets can be launched within 6 to 12 seconds. The launch vehicle is equipped with a fire control system with a ballistic computer, aiming sight and 1D14 laser range finder.
