What is the maximum effective range of the SASR?

• A. 1200m
• B. 1500m
• C. 2100m
• D. 1830m

Answer: (D)

Maximum effective range is the farthest distance at which you can reliably hit a target with a trained operator under typical field conditions. For the SASR, the combination of propulsion and guidance keeps a stable, accurate flight up to about 1,830 meters. Beyond that distance, flight time increases, wind and target movement have more opportunity to throw the projectile off course, and the guidance system’s accuracy declines, dropping the hit probability below what’s considered effective in combat.

So, 1,830 meters is the published maximum distance at which you can expect reliable engagement with the SASR under standard conditions. The other options would fall outside that reliable envelope—either being too short to maximize the system’s effectiveness or extending beyond what the weapon can consistently hit with acceptable accuracy.
