"Got my missile launcher, right here!"

History
"You mark them out, we'll take them down."

-Motto of the experimental 1st Infantry Battalion, 1st Peacekeeper Division

The anti-armor weapons of Aquilan light infantry has long stood vigilant across many wars, with famous launchers such as the FIM-92 'Stinger', M72 LAW and the vengeful Javelin turning any enemy tank into scrap metal with one successful hit. However, during the 21st century, the Aquilan Armed Forces had to take drastic budget cuts in order to continue field their armies with portable anti-armor weapons. With more advanced enemies appearing on the horizon and with a decline of volunteers for the mobile infantry, the Aquilan Armed Forces had a dilemma. They needed to consolidate the amount of heavy weapon specialists in each regiment, meaning they had to carry more weapons if they were to engage both ground and air targets. The solution was the SRAW. The SRAW fires an SACLOS missile that can be fired and guided upon any type of target, be it tank, helicopter, or in some cases, even jets. The warhead used is not the heaviest nor most efficient one, but its versitality in use compared to any other system made it popular amongst the Aquilan-troops.

During the 2004 V.C. Voshkod Invasion of Aquila, the wielders of these launchers were comically named 'Missile Defenders ', due to them being rarely issued more than the SRAW and a handgun.
