SOPS:

It depends on the SAM, Manpads typically 10k, SA-6 up to about 30k but that is an effective range, the rocket will fly higher than that and might get lucky, a Tornado was shot down by a ballistic (no guidance) SA2 in GW1.

I am not sure which rockets the crazies got when they over ran the Iraqis early on.
