The PZR Grom (PZR stands for Przeciwlotniczy Zestaw Rakietowy, or "Anti-Aircraft Rocket-Propelled Set" while "Grom" means "Thunder"), is a surface-to-air missile developed in Poland. During the 1980s, Poland planned to replace their old SA-7 Grail with a more modern system, but political turmoils (and the fact that Poland left the Soviet Bloc in 1990) left Poland without any modern MANPADS. The Soviet Union decided not to give Poland the licenses for the SA-18 Grouse, but in the turmoil of the Soviet Union's dissolution, the Polish intelligence system was able to acquire the SA-18's original design plans, using them to develop the Grom.

A new and improved version called Piorun (Polish for "Lighting Strike") was developed in the 2010s.
