Family of short range air-to-air missiles.
.
Variants:

Pike 1: Very early heat seeking missile. Only capable of rear-aspect 
shots.
.
Pike 2-A:  Major redesign of the Pike 1, equipped with uncaged seeker 
allowing higher angle shots and improved side aspect capability. Improved 
control surfaces and rocket motor.
.
Guardian: SARH guided missile derived from the Pike 2 Family. The Guardian variant featured here is an upgraded 
version. Guardian missiles were gradually replaced by Pike 2-SM
.
Pike 2-SM: Drastically improved seeker with all-aspect capability and 
increased gimbal limit. Higher maximum G. Retained most of the Pike 2-A 
design.
.
Pike 2-E: 5th gen missile with Thermal    Imaging seeker, Thrust vectoring, IRCCM and jamming resistance. Equipped with a larger warhead and rocket 
motor.

If you want to make a rear aspect missile I wrote a forum about it here

For IRCCM, read the pinned comment here

If you want to learn how the jamming resistance works this has an explanation

    Quite a nice alternate universe Sidewinder!
    Our equivalent would be the AAM-2 Series:
    AAM-2A "Guardian" (IR) First of the series, now used in MANPADs as the SAM-2IR
    AAM-2B "Guardian-R" (SARH) The stock Guardian is a nerfed AAM-2B
    AAM-2C/D "ASRAAM" (SARH) Experimental variant that later became the AAM-2M
    AAM-2E "Swiftwind" (SARH) Modernized Guardian-R
    AAM-2F "Swiftwind-ER" (ARH) Made mostly for ships, now known as the RAM-2ER
    AAM-2G/SAM-2E "Skysweep" (SARH or PRH) Modernized ship-launched ARAD variant
    AAM-2H/I/J/AGM-2/MSL-2 "Swiftwind-Multipurpose" (OPTCL or ARH) Multirole variant
    AAM-2K/KAAM-2E/AAM-2Km1 "Swiftwind-Krakabloa" (SARH) Nerfed AAM-2E made for Krakabloa (now replaced by the AAM-2M5)
    AAM-2L "Ultra Guardian" (SARH) Used as a cheap alternative to the AAM-2M
    AAM-2M "Super Swiftwind" (SARH, ARH or IR) Sprouted a new missile family
    AAM-2Sm "Ultra Swiftwind" (IR) Supermaneuverable variant of the AAM-2M10, a further modification known as the AAM-SmX has thrust vectoring

    The community should pay special attention to coding engineers, they do the most difficult intellectual and tedious work in this game.
