2. I set it for mach 3 as that's roughly how fast the SR-71 is flying.It flies Mach 3, but you are setting radial speed, so it should be bit lower. 5. The reason I only use 1 missile for this engagement is simple; no US aircraft has ever been fired on by an S-200 before. Therefore, the SR-71 will never even know it's been engaged and thus won't be maneuvering/evading. Of course in real life I'm sure the CO would've ordered 3 missiles fired. SR71 was a high prized target, so I bet than in a case of receiving firing order, a battery would launch all missiles possible. (more than 6) 5. The reason I only use 1 missile for this engagement is simple; no US aircraft has ever been fired on by an S-200 before. Therefore, the SR-71 will never even know it's been engaged and thus won't be maneuvering/evadingLaunching a Vega missile is not detectable by RWR's. The only time US NAVY faced the Libyan S-200, they sent forward the Ticonderoga ships to detect the huge missile while flying. (they did it successfully)

Hi to all! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . for several weeks I worked very Hard to upgrade some oldish Volhov, and now it's ready to be used! if you are ready Hpasp, you can add it to next release of SAM Sim. How can guess what is this???

I'm sure at that time they assumed it would spike RWR just as all previous Russian SAMs did.

I have an impression that in the sim, jamming aircraft generally do not change their altitude. Is it so? Is it a merciful feature so that we could shoot them down? Nope. The SR71 were simply not able to change its altitude quickly, otherwise it would stall. The B52 pilots over Hanoi were threatened with court-martial if they break the formation. F4 will change altitude at their will...

The reason for that was for defensive equipment and rear gun coverage. If aircraft left the formation it changed the coverage of their ECM gear and left aircraft more vulnerable, and also left holes in their gun coverage for the rear guns.
