The primary armament of the ADM-140 Liberator system is the 140MV(1/2) missile. Prior to 2015, the earlier 140MV1 missiles had a range of 250km and utilized SARH guidance and homing, while then newer 140MV2 missiles have an increased 385km range and an added active radar homing warhead. 140MV2 missiles also feature a home-on-jam mode to target both EW aircraft and incoming munitions with in-sensor jamming features. | The primary armament of the ADM-140 Liberator system is the 140MV(1/2) missile.

The ADM-140 Liberator is a long-range or theater-defense missile in service with both the Inyurstan Army and Inyurstan Navy. It is designed to defend strategic airspace against a wide variety of high and medium-altitude air targets with some anti-ballistic capabilities against tactical, short-range and potentially some medium-range ballistic missiles.
Capabilities
Radar surveillance and target detection for the Liberator system is provided by the V-40 multi-band AESA radar, which operates several independent radar "beams". It can track 3m2 targets out to 500km. The V-40 also offers anti-ECM capability and low-probability of intercept (LPI) modes. Supporting tracking and fire control is provided by the smaller continuous-wave DV-10 Fire Control radar. Batteries are often deployed with a supporting V-37 UHF radar (~650km for 3m2 targets) for anti-EW redundancy and rumored improved detection of stealth targets.
The primary armament of the ADM-140 Liberator system is the 140MV(1/2) missile. Prior to 2015, the earlier 140MV1 missiles had a range of 250km and utilized SARH guidance and homing, while then newer 140MV2 missiles have an increased 385km range and an added active radar homing warhead. 140MV2 missiles also feature a home-on-jam mode to target both EW aircraft and incoming munitions with in-sensor jamming features.
Combat History
In the Lolloh-Ruol War, the system was fielded in defense of allied positions on the DMZ, around the key cities of Vestnu and Calamion, supporting General DeLoroza's advance and capture of Dekkar and later on ships deployed in the Ruol Sea and North Sea. ADM-140 SAM's were mercilessly effective against Lollohian high-altitude fighter-bomber waves and short-range ballistic missiles. The ADM-140 suffered no losses in this conflict; though this is likely due to the lack of Lollohian SEAD or other forms of tactical deep-strike capabilities.
ADM-140E1 were deployed to Tifya in 2018 to defend against Bashriyyan air missile attacks. They remained there during the interwar period and into 2022 where they were able to engage several missiles arcing towards Sugogo.
Variants
ADM-140A1: Standard 2003-era ground-based variant.
- ADM-140A2: Upgrade of the to integrate with the newer radar modules and fire the 140MV2 missile.
ADM-140E: Improved 2016-era ground-based variant with improved radar integration, semi-independent TEL operation and designed to fire the 140MV2. Additional software "empty space" for future upgrades and intergration added.
ADM-140S: Naval variant fitted to SSU-10 strike-length VLS. Mounted on D'Andalucia Class Destroyer, Valizéno Class Cruisers, Caracara Class Destroyers, and Nuveau Lyon Class Aviation Cruisers.
ADM-140E2-X: Prototype variant with improved ABM capabilities. Has not entered service.
ADM-140C1: Export variant with undetermined capabilities. Has not been adopted.
