GRAVEHAWK

Model: GRAVEHAWK R-73

British-Ukrainian containerised short-range air-defence system using two R-73/AA-11 infrared-guided air-to-air missiles adapted for surface launch. It is primarily intended to counter UAVs, with capability against aircraft, helicopters and potentially cruise missiles. Two prototypes were delivered and tested in Ukraine, followed by an order for 15 production systems. Where GRAVEHAWK-specific technical figures are not public, conservative simulation parameters are used.

Sources and interpretation

The description and simulation values come from the MISSILES platform catalog. Independent specification references and a factual review date have not yet been recorded for this profile. Image credits identify the image source only; they do not verify the simulation values.
