== Description ==
<!--''Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.''-->

The '''Shafrir''' is an Israeli [[Air-to-air_missiles#Infrared_homing_.28heat-seeking.29_missiles|Infrared homing air-to-air missile]], it was introduced in [[Update 1.87 "Locked On"]], along with the {{Specs-Link|so_4050_vautour_2a_iaf}} (the only aircraft currently equipped with it). The design of the missile was based upon that of the [[AIM-9B]] and it performs similarly to it in game.
