Usually they use recycled air-air missiles of the average radius of AIM-120. They are traditional for this complex. In Ukraine, they also have, but in the video of the Air Force showed start, probably other ammunition. NASAMS has a modular architecture that allows you to use different radars and sensors, as well as different number of starting installations. The system can be integrated into larger complex air defense systems.
The fresh video of the Air Force shows a launch that is not like the standard AIM-120. The SAC can shoot AIM-9x Sidewinder missiles and even anti-rackets from the German IRIS-T complex. They both have very pronounced plumage on the body of the rocket. So some believe that given the appearance of the rocket, it can be Amraam-E. This is a specially designed nasams ammunition. It is a hybrid AIM-120 and RIM-162 Essm.
The combination of the control and engine control system and the AMraam battle part provides the maximum range and height of the lesion. However, it is unclear whether Ukraine could produce the latest amraam-EM amraam. Raytheon is known to produce rockets for Qatar, Hungary and Kuwait. Therefore, the author does not rule out that the video may have another rocket. The main problem with ammunition identification is that low quality videos.
