So what you are saying is that Syria purposely moved all their defenses away from any path the Israelis could use to get to their enrichment site?
Seems legit... LOL
What I'm saying is that this area never saw any air defences. Since the beginning of the time, invention of agriculture, establishment of Syria, etc...

Proximity-Fuzed prefragmented HE (PFHE) ammo is much more effective (and expensive) compared to the HEI-T used by the Shilka.

Quite an intersting read. It's really not a technical manual, even though it explains the basics of the system and differences to the Volhov complex. But the meat is in the telling the story of preparing for the introduction of the first S-300 to the East German SAM forces. The anecdotes give a bit of insight in what life and training in an active cold war SAM unit was like during peace time, all over the backdrop of Perestroika and Glasnost.
Of course this all happening between 1988 and 1990 means that while the East German air defense forces had - forgive me the crude imagery - a massive hard-on for the highly advanced S-300 they were blueballed by having to ship the system back to Russia when the Warsaw pact fell apart.

I had a little taste of what controlling one would be like. In Il-2 1946 i had set up a massive B-17 raid to bomb a city; then put a lone Ta-183 armed with X-4's on the ground; in line with the bombers. I managed to kill one; altough it's really a royal pain to get a man to do a computer's job; flying a missile into an airplane :P

^ Yeah i saw that! I assume it's what they need before an Invasion. Scary #%&*$#. I support massively dousing the middle-east with weaponized synthetic THC; ain't no time to fight when you are playing ball with pink elephants.
Aaah and Rhine-daughter! That's a very weird one. I think it is a Rheinbote SSM development.
And then again there's another one, the Enzian wich is basically a pilotless ME-163
Three competing projects wasting their efforts; this was a trademark of the nazi war machine. Had they concentrated on any one of them; their effects on the bomber campaign could have been horrifying for us. Night as well as day missions would be in danger from these radar-guided missiles; even if they are primitive as hell.
But the last one is the insanest; the Natter (Viper); wich is basically a PILOTED rocket-spitting semi-reusable SAM (i refuse to call this contraption an interceptor). It's first flight killed the pilot; wich reinforced the belief that "auto-pilot" is the only way to control such a dangerously fast machine
