SA-1 Red Mist, Shirerithian surface-to-air missile reverse engineered from the Minarborian Burdock surface to air missile[1] during the 1640s. Deployed on Boojum mobile-launchers as part of the Sart Shuck missile complex.

The missile itself consisted of two stages, the first comprised of two solid fuel boosters and two ramjets, and the second, with its own separate short range solid fuel rocket motor, which housed the continuous-wave radar receptors and electro-optical infrared homing seeker and a continuous-rod warhead.

By the mid-1660's the stockpile of SA-1 missiles had heavily depleted, with many being expended during various conflicts with Jingdao or else removed from operational stockpiles as critical internal components reached their life-expiry point. From 1667 onward remaining examples of the missile type were withdrawn from service and replaced by the System 2 Standard Missile concurrent with the beginning of the phased disassembly of the Boojum launchers in order to salvage gravimetric components for the Nereid programme.

The decision to withdraw the SA-1 from service was reversed by the Joint Military Council of the Raspur Pact in 1671 and, as part of the reactivation of the Allied Production Matrix, production of the type was resumed, this time for employment from fixed air defence emplacements. As of 1678, 1,981 SA-1 units have been installed in launcher modules screening national capitals, military bases, and critical economic and industrial infrastructure across the Raspur Pact alliance.
