The Raytheon MIM-23 HAWK ("Homing All the Way Killer") [2] is an American medium-range surface-to-air missile.It was designed to be a much more mobile counterpart to the MIM-14 Nike Hercules, trading off range and altitude capability for a much smaller size and weight.
MIM-23 Hawk: Medium Range Surface-to-Air Missile: 200 battery: 1970s–present: In 1999, Iran locally upgraded their Hawk Missile systems to Improved Hawk Missiles and increased their range up to 24–30 km and flight altitude up to 14–16 km. Missile Specifications: Range = 24–30 km Altitude = 14–16 km Speed = Mach 2.4
The MIM-72A/M48 Chaparral is an American-made self-propelled surface-to-air missile system based on the AIM-9 Sidewinder air-to-air missile system. The launcher is based on the M113 family of vehicles. It entered service with the United States Army in 1969 and was phased out between 1990 and 1998.
The Brigade changed its name to the 1st Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade in 1998 after the Neva systems were retired. The current name was received on 1 September 2001. [2] In 2006, the HAWK Battalion was established, and the first shooting tests were performed in 2012. Also in 2012, the Brigade started taking part in the Air Police Combat Service ...
The integrated air defense battle management command and control system, based on KS500F computers and the KMC9000 control console with two color CRT displays, was first developed for the Norwegian Adapted Hawk (NOAH) program, [10] an upgrade to the MIM-23B Improved Hawk semi-active radar head, surface-to-air missile system.
The system was developed by Toshiba as a replacement for the 75 mm M51 Skysweeper and M15A1 37 mm/12.7 mm anti-aircraft guns. Designed as a mobile short-range system to fill the performance gap between the FIM-92 Stinger man portable missile, and the larger MIM-23 Hawk missile system, which were both in service at the time.

Semi-active radar homing (SARH) is a common type of missile guidance system, perhaps the most common type for longer-range air-to-air and surface-to-air missile systems. The name refers to the fact that the missile itself is only a passive detector of a radar signal—provided by an external ("offboard") source—as it reflects off the target [1] [2] (in contrast to active radar homing, which ...
