One of the main purpose of this simulator, to teach the users of the capabilities, and limitations of these elderly (and mystic) SAM systems.
They are like a "samurai sword" in modern warfare, pretty obsolete and old fashioned weapons, but if you do not take them seriously, they can be still deadly.



Just to clarify, what I mean obsolete...

Dvina/Volhov/Neva are the products of the 50's.
(60 years ago!!!)

Vega is the product of the 60's.
(50 years ago!!!)

S-300PT/PS (SA-10) are the systems, that were developed in the 70's.
(40 years ago!!!)

The S-300PM (SA-20) is the system developed during the 80's.
(30 years ago!!!)

The S-400 (SA-21) is the only SAM system that was developed in the past 20 years.

That's what I mean obsolete...
