I know what we use today does not much resemble the Patriots we used in GW1.
LOL, actually they do. Since the Gulf War, the only thing you would see different is that they have replaced the generator with a different model, and added a GPS antenna on the mast. That's it, all the other changes are internal. I was actually on the PAC-3+ team, and about the only changes we had to do were replacing some of the computer cards inside.
Not sure what all you think is different, the system used today is almost entirely the same.
Oh, and the connections for the missiles? All the same, but for the PAC-3 and PAC-3 MSE. They retain the same canisters because that is how they mount on the launcher.
