 == History ==
-As a whole the S-5 family of rockets were developed after the capture of German 55mm R4M rockets. Development began in 1951 as project ARS-57, in 1955 the project reached completion and received the S-5 designation. The S-5 family contains roughly 18 variants, with the S-5K being just one among them. While the S-5 has seen extensive use, it is noted for its poor accuracy. During the soviet invasion of Afghanistan the S-5's were deemed ineffective and were phased out for the larger S-8 rockets.
