During the Cold War and subsequent conflicts, the MIM-23 HAWK protected important military bases, infrastructure, and strategic areas both in the USA and allied countries – including during the Yom Kippur War and in NATO operations. The MIM-23 entered service in the late 1950s and the system was upgraded and used for several decades, up to the 1990s. Its users included the US, German, French, Israeli, and Japanese armed forces, among others.\n\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eModel Features and Recommendation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe AFV Club 35283 model is characterized by exceptional attention to detail – featuring faithfully reproduced launchers, the three-section missile, and hydraulic system details.
