notes | The MIM-23 Hawk, also known as the "Homing All the Way Killer," is a medium-range surface-to-air missile system developed by the United States in the 1960s. It was designed to provide air defense against enemy aircraft, particularly those flying at low to medium altitudes.

counter | The HAWK is a low to medium theater threat. It can be jammed and chaffed. Easy to locate and target via ECM pods. Engage with Standoff weapons such as ARMs, cruise missiles or long-range air-to-ground missiles from a low level approach. Engage from outside its range, thereby avoiding its air defense capabilities. |
