The ADATS defense turret is the primary base defense of the U.S. Army. It fires a volley of up to 8 AA or AT missiles at any nearby enemy targets. With high-explosive warheads in each missile, this missile battery is strong against all kinds of targets and since they can attack any target, ground or air, deploying them is relatively straightforward.  Moreover the upgrades available are also global and also increase the potency of current and future turrets in play.

Due to its sophisticated targeting systems and sensors that also detect stealth units, adequate power is needed to operate these turrets or they will be rendered offline.

Upgrades

E-3 Sentry AWACS link Costs $2500. Increases damage against aircraft.
