Raytheon MIM-104 Patriot SAM System STL 3D Print Model

The Raytheon MIM-104 Patriot is one of the world’s most advanced surface-to-air missile air defense systems, and this highly detailed 3D printable model captures the full battery setup including the M901 launcher unit on trailer, the tow truck (MAN-based 8×8 cab), the engagement control station trailer, and the AN/MPQ-53 radar antenna. Designed as a multi-part assembly available in 1:35 and 1:72 scale, every component features fine surface detail including missile canisters, outrigger leveling pads, handrails, antennas, and structural framework. The model has been print-tested in both PLA (FDM) and SLA resin, ensuring reliable results across technologies. Files are delivered as STL in a single ZIP archive ready for slicing.

Print settings

FDM printing is recommended at 0.1–0.15 mm layer height with supports enabled, particularly under the elevated launcher arm and outrigger struts; resin (SLA/MSLA) will capture fine antenna and railing details best. Orient the launcher trailer flat on its base and print the cab upright; the radar dish is best printed face-down with light supports. Use 20–25% infill (gyroid or grid) for structural parts; thin antenna masts may benefit from a brim or be printed separately in resin. PLA or ABS works well for larger structural parts; resin is advised for the missile canisters and radar array at 1:72 scale.
