      Nope, you do not. Sadly even during the first some minutes I stopped count the inaccurate statements of the video.
      Even the names and designations are not correct in many times.
      Foe ex. the S-75 Desna was a very, very, very short lived thing.
      The S-75V and later the S-75M was the definitive and long lasting variant.
      The S-75s could guide three missiles on a single target and not one.
      I rather recommend this series about the same topic.

      He could probably cover everything they have in the same Video length. Soviet Union/Russia has by far the most multiple layer AA system. It was always assumed the Soviet Airforce would be out numbered and that philosophy has continued to apply. It also serves to protect Russian facilities and cities from the same kind of bombing campaign you see in Middle East all the time.

      Yep, a clever radar operator went against doctrine and pinged an extra time at what the system considered a flock of birds, but this time it got caught with its bomb doors open, presenting a larger radar cross section. This is a failure of flight planning as well, due to the F117s all being flown down the same corridor. Good case study

    Hey ! Thanks again for covering our mod. FYI, the S and U TELs on the S-300PS use the same missile, and have the same range. The only difference between both is that one is a "smart" TEL with the needed electronics while the other is a '"dumb" TEL without said eletronics. IRL, a smart TEL is used to control a dumb one, and the dumb one can't fire its missiles alone. This can be seen on the models: the smart TEL have a compartiment behind the driving position while the dumb one just has a spare wheel. In DCS, both TELs work identically.

    Excuse me, one additional remark.
    Just try to imagine the situation back then: the Soviet Union was much poorer than the US and had a clear lag in terms of electronics. By the time the US and UK used integrated circuits in their missiles, the USSR still had to work with vacuum tubes. This was not because soviet engineers were not good enough. In terms of knowledge there was no difference, but the soviet industry could not produce high-tech with consistent quality and in the required quantity. Some production batches of the same piece of equipment were good, others were disaster. So the soviet engineers had to achieve the same efficiency than their NATO colleagues, but using a one generation earlier electronics. And they almost did it. That is why these engineers behind these systems deserve the respect of our generation.

    • @championknife
      @championknife 2 года назад +2

      a little different, the backlog in electronics in the USSR was 5 years, this is actually not much. The fact is that the USSR was waiting for the US attack, which means it must withstand the first strike of an atomic weapon. At that moment, neither the USSR nor the United States had solid-state electronics that could withstand the electromagnetic pulse of a nuclear explosion. But this impulse was well withstood by lamp equipment, so the army adhered to lamp circuits to the last. I will shock you, but I personally saw equipment on ships, including logic circuits made on pneumatics. These circuits did not respond to nuclear explosions at all.

But as for the lag in electronics, I believe that the capabilities of the industry in the USSR was lagged by 10-15 years to produce such equipment, while the scientific knowledge level was very comparable.

      The video should be redone regardless of "contemporary targets" or not. The video is sadly filled with lots of inaccurate statements.
      I'm currently creating a list jus about the most serious ones...
      If you are really interested in SAMs I recommend the SAM series on Militavia channel.
      It was started on Binkov's Battleground. The episode about the SA-3 family is almost done.
