Overview
The Hawk fires long-range guided missiles at aircraft and nothing else. Where the Flak Track defends a column, the Hawk denies a whole stretch of sky.
How to use
Two or three Hawks behind an army make bombers and gunships unaffordable for the enemy: they die on the approach. Pair with Flak, so that Hawks kill the big, expensive aircraft while Flak handles the cheap swarm. Like every anti-air unit it is helpless against ground forces, so keep it escorted and behind the front.
Counters
Anything on the ground. It counters Fighters, Bombers, Gunships and every other aircraft.
