Which statement correctly pairs the SASR's maximum range and maximum effective range?

• A. Maximum range is 6812m and maximum effective range is 1830m.
• B. Maximum range is 6812m and maximum effective range is 1200m.
• C. Maximum range is 5000m and maximum effective range is 1830m.
• D. Maximum range is 6812m and maximum effective range is 1830m.

Answer: (D)

Understanding how a shoulder-fired anti-armor system’s reach is described helps you know what to expect in the field. The maximum range is the furthest distance the missile can travel under its propulsion and guidance limits. The maximum effective range is the distance at which the system can reliably deliver a hit against typical targets, considering guidance performance, target behavior, and environmental factors.

For the SASR, the numbers given show a maximum range of 6812 meters and a maximum effective range of 1830 meters. This pairing reflects that you can push the missile out to about 6.8 km, but reliable impact against a target sits around 1.8 km. The other options mix these values in ways that don’t align with the system’s specifications—either changing the max range or the effective range—so the correct pairing is the one with 6812 meters for maximum range and 1830 meters for maximum effective range.
