===Background===
Following the end of the Great War and the development of nuclear weapons, Serria's island geographical advantage became less of a deterrent from attack. The necessity to engage long-range bomber attacks became a strategic imperative, and the Alton Initiative was launched in June 1946. The initiative focused on rapidly funding the development, procurement, and deployment of anti-aircraft missiles, eventually leading to Serria's first surface-to-air missile batteries being deployed within the decade in 1949.
With the first signs of the growing threat of nuclear-tipped ballistic missiles, the first focus on an Serrian anti-ballistic missile defense began to occur in the 1950s.
