The S2.720 is one of my favorite engine packages ever designed. Perfectly designed, nothing to waste. Red fuming nitric acid and JP4/alpha pinene propellants were cheap, storable and of sufficient Isp to get the job done. Congrats on owning a beautiful piece of engineering. There was one of these for sale on Ebay from a gentleman in Greece early this month (October) and unfortunately, the starting bid was $5k USD which I could not afford, sadly. Thank you for taking a nice walk around video of the package. I look forward to more! :-)
It is almost unbelievable they designed such a reliable weapon system with hypergolic, highly corrosive and toxic liquid fuels! 60 year old, and still serving in quite high numbers, that is a clear proof that the engineering of these things must be almost perfect.
Ce serait pas le fuselage d'un SA-2 que l'on voit tout au fond de la pièce, à coté de la pile de bois ?

Cette grosse pièce grise au fond de la pièce est un booster à propergol solide Kartukov PRD-18, qui est le 1er étage d’un SA-2. Il est rangé à la verticale, c’est le même que le blanc que l’on aperçoit sur la droite, posé à l’horizontal sur un chariot.
