History
Developed by Lockheed Martin in the 1990s under the USMC Predator program, the FGM-172 SRAW (Short-Range Assault Weapon) entered service in 2002 as a disposable shoulder-launched weapon for Marine infantry.
It uses predictive inertial guidance: the gunner tracks the target for a few seconds and the weapon computes the impact point, attacking from above in a top-attack profile. Retired in the 2010s after a limited production run.
