What type of missile is primarily associated with the Avenger system?

The Avenger system is primarily associated with the FIM-92 Stinger missile. The Stinger is a portable, infrared-guided surface-to-air missile designed primarily for use against enemy aircraft. It is effective, compact, and suitable for deployment by ground forces, making it an ideal fit for the Avenger platform, which is designed to provide short-range air defense.

In contrast, the other missiles listed are designed for different roles: the AGM-114 Hellfire is an air-to-surface missile primarily used by attack helicopters, and the RIM-116 Rolling Airframe is a naval missile designed for close-in defense of ships against anti-ship missiles and aircraft. The SM-3 Standard Missile is used for intermediate to long-range ballistic missile defense from naval platforms. None of these alternatives serve the same role as the Stinger within the context of the Avenger system's operational design.
