I tnink the concept "Realistic to the switch" will loose with the "Patriot". The SA-2 to 5 are old, but you have literature and real officers, to make them really "real"

Correct.

Nobody in Hungary has any qualifications about the Patriot.
nope

Meanwhile I had the privilege of personally sitting in a ZSU-24-4V1 Shilka for hours, and has connections to the ex-Trainer of the Shilka school in Hungary...

All in all, Shilka would be realistic-to-the-switch, while Patriot would only give you a kind-of-feeling of the system operator job...
(yet still the most realistic available free sim)
... but still openly looking for other systems, and ways to develop the SAMSIM.
cool
