Historical Overview

The MIM-23 HAWK (Homing All the Way Killer) is a legendary American medium-range surface-to-air missile system. Originally designed to neutralize aircraft, it was later modernized to intercept missiles. While the system has seen action in dozens of global conflicts, it entered a new chapter of its legacy in Ukraine. Thanks to deliveries from allied nations, the HAWK has become a vital guardian of Ukrainian skies, proving highly effective against kamikaze drones and cruise missiles. The system’s most recognizable feature is its triple-missile launcher with the iconic cruciform wing design.
