What about the SA-6 or the SA-8? If possible, would I really like to have the priveledge of operating the SA-6.
I apologize up front and please forgive me for sounding like the devil's advocate. I do not agree that a fully accurate sim can be made for this weapons system as of yet for the following reasons:I fully agree with you. All the systems above S-200 (SA-5) are still fielded, and operational.
(Except Nike Hercules and the SA-1)
All systems in the SIM are based on open source material.(SA-6 is still fielded by the Hungarian Army, so I would wait, when it would be removed from service, and do the SIM as realistic as possible)
By the way, all the military flightsims around are based on open source material.
Simply the SAMs are not simulated, so everybody thinks that they are dumb guys.
If I would do a Defcon type of Patriot SIM, it would be STILL the BEST FREE Patriot SIM available.
This SIM is anyway not simulating pre-battle system initialization, just try to give you the look-and-feel of real historic battle from the SAM crew point of view.
But I think, voting should decide at the end.
