Trumpeter 1/35 SA-2 Guideline
The SA-2 Guideline (S-75 Dvina) was the most widely deployed surface to air system ever deployed. It gained considerable success during the Vietnam War and Middle East conflicts in spite of the advance of electronic counter measurements and air tactics deployed to deflect the fired missile. Perhaps, the success of missile hits can be credited to the firing of missile salvos against single targets.
Trumpeter's SA-2 comes in two kits; a launcher and a missile carrier. These kits are highly detailed and signaled the beginning of a long line of excellent Soviet Era armor kits by Trumpeter. I took photographs of the SA-2 positioned in the Hazerim Museum to show that the kits does not fall short of the real thing.
Very nice work, Rafi @blackmopane
Both, truck and launch platform do look superb.
Thank you, John.
Wonderful result on what looks a very challenging kit, Rafi!
Congratulations!
Thank you, Spiros!
Very neat build Rafi. Good reference pics must have helped with the finish Rafi 👍
Thank you, Guy.
What I found out through the reference pics is that Trumpeter did a very good job and I did not have to add many scratch made components to the build.
Excellent job!
Thank you, Butch!
very nice job!
