==Other platforms== [[Transporter erector launcher]]s are wheeled or tracked land vehicles for the launch of surface-to-air and surface-to-surface missiles. In most systems the missiles are transported in a horizontal out-of-battery configuration: in order to fire, the vehicle must stop and the transport/launch tube must be raised to the vertical before firing. [[BAE Systems]] has filed patents relating to the use of Vertical Launch missiles from modified passenger aircraft.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://patents.google.com/patent/US7540227 |title=Patent US7540227 β Air based vertical launch ballistic missile defense β Google Patents |date=2003-05-06 |access-date=2016-12-29 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161230002334/https://www.google.com/patents/US7540227 |archive-date=2016-12-30 |url-status=live }}</ref>
