They’re launching then from Soviet land-based anti-aircraft vehicles somehow.

When they do this, it's called a Sea Spaciva. 😏

Thought it was a European sparrow rather than a north American.

Little faster due to a lower unladen weight.

Are you suggesting anti-air missiles migrate?

All I'm saying is, it's not a matter of fuel efficiency, it's a simple matter of weight ratios. A one ton missile cannot be manufactured and deployed without a comparably sized carbon footprint.
