Glad I have just found out about this as I thought also it was a bug, but what is the tgt 1104 that I get everytime, is that the AA missile, and if so why is the tgt number in white and why can I not lock onto it in the IADS screen, or can I only lock onto it manually?

Yes, I am also interested about any info on S-250.

Thank's too much for all this info, it was a logical question in one chapter
about "The names of the Military Equipments" for the "Complementary and additive information" Book!
your reply will be added as it! (I promise!)

BTW I never heard about S-250 for neva Upgrade' any deep info?

Just for lol!

Yeah, 1104 is the RS-2US (Alkali) missile, you can lock onto it manually, just track the fighter (1102) on your A or Z screen and when you see a new contact separating from it, lock onto it and FIRE!!!

And he didn't believe them when they told him that radar radiation can be bad for his health...

Please stop Guruing...


The S-125M2 Neva development was also scrapped during 1978.
It contained mainly those advances to the operator panels, that you as an expert virtual FCO would really appreciate.

Volhov style Elevation and Azimuth indicators.


The target flight parameter instruments gone below to the UK31.


Volhov style "target throw over" possibility from the acquisition radar.

To improve the detection range of very low flying targets (cruise missiles), the plan was to elevate the SNR.



This concept was further improved with the S-300P mobile elevated masts (40V6).

I still have some (idiotic) questions. g.e, i never understood very well the Plotting Table indicators..
I thought "Own Target" is the designated target to the battery. But i found a Su-22 on Hungary being considerated "Own Target", how is that possible, what's the definition of "Own Target"?

Also, what's a "supervisor target" and a "rule violator target"?
That info would be useful for the translation, I fear doing a "word-by-word" translation and lose the real meaning of the words...

Thank You once again

0 – jamming target
1 – friendly target (our armed fighter)
2 – identified target (our unarmed fighter with IFF on)
3 – border violator (previously unannounced target, that violated our airspace. This is when the adrenalin started...)
4 – supervisor target (WarPact level target to check the air defense readiness. You need to imitate missile launches against it, and prove it later.)
5 – own target (our fighter flying to practice the air defense batteries)
6 – rule violator target (our civil or fighter plane, in a wrong place or altitude)
7 – practice target ("paper dragon", target exist only on the plotting board)
8 – enemy (wartime, shot at it with live missile)
9 – target without IFF (our unarmed fighter with IFF off)
