from what I have read, the HAWK is very very good.

The new HAWK is good but the HAWKs in my father’s day were lucky to leave the launcher...

And the Patriot is even better. Yeah, the Israelis complained about its capabilities against Scuds during Desert Storm, but they never got rid of them. In fact, the IDF has the latest variant of the Patriot; not only are they much improved against ballistic missiles, they are absolutely devastating against tactical aircraft.

One reason that the unofficial motto of Patriot units is, “If it flies, it dies, and we’ll sort out the pieces on the ground.”

The HAWK is still a good system. VERY FAST....comes off the rail at Mach 2 methinks.
