The Standartnaya Raketa-3 (SR-3) is a ship-based surface-to-air missile system used to intercept short- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles. Although primarily designed as an anti-ballistic missile, the SR-3 has also been employed in an anti-satellite capacity against a satellite at the lower end of low orbit. The SR-3 is primarily used and tested by the Akvarelusus.
