A surface-to-air missile?

As funny as that would be, maybe you should define your terms before you try to use them.

The reply defining terms from busterarm was flagged, so I'm repeating them here:

> TAM or Total Available Market is the total market demand for a product or service. SAM or Serviceable Available Market is the segment of the TAM targeted by your products and services which is within your geographical reach. SOM or Serviceable Obtainable Market is the portion of SAM that you can capture.
