EAW-20 Sea Javelin Air Defence Missile System.
The Sea Javelin is an all-round shipbourne medium-range surface-to-air missile complex, with high level combat performance.
The complex has a circular envelope of fire. It can kill targets in a wide range of target's crossover parameters and altitudes and in considerable killing zone depth. It also has a limited anti-ship capability.
It is a solid propellant-fueled, tail-controlled, surface to air missile fired by surface ships. Designed to counter high-speed, high-altitude anti-ship cruise missiles in an advanced ECM environment, its primary mode of target engagement uses mid-course guidance with radar illumination of the target by the ship for missile homing during the terminal phase. .
It can be installed on any combatant ship (corvette, frigate, destroyer, cruiser, etc.) with displacement of 1,400 tons or more. The modular structure provides high level of combat survivability, simplicity of maintenance, The Missile may either be launched from vertical launch cells or single launchers.
The complex utilizes the target information supplied by the 3D circular-scan radar which consists of compact antenna stations that are installed in the periphery of the ship's masts and superstructures. A high level of automation ensures rapid reaction and high rate of fire.
Missiles are launched automatically from rapid-fire single-rail launchers or vertical Launch Cells. One, two, or three missiles are guided at each target. The missile stock requires no shipboard testing.
The complex hardware and software are developed at the most up-to-date level. It has functional and direct redundancy, includes an automatic control system permitting a switch-over of the utilized algorithms in the event of some individual device failure.
The complex includes a simulator to train and condition operators.

Prices
Missile System
Includes radars, automated control devices and integration systems needed on each ship, ship must already be equipped with vertical or rail launchers.The missile does not use a specialised launcher so it can be fired from most vertical launch systems or rail launchers without much modification to the launcher.
=$10.8 million per vessel
EAW-20 Sea Javelin Block I: 50,000 US dollars per missile (standard version)
EAW-20 Sea Javelin Block II: 87,000 per missile (Extended range version)
