dear hpasp... before publish new version on samsim... could u create one manual ashuluk site for sa-5 gammon?

all of systems in sam sim had a ideal position in ashuluk target but sa-5 has no enough space for fighting and all of ashuluk target launching from under 150KM but vega's kill zone is 200

Would be nice if there would be an easy Mode. So that People that cant read this Language know what Button or switch does do.
I mean an Translation from Russian or what ever it is in English.

So if i go with my Mouse over an Button or Switch or an other Text there, a little Text Box does Open where the English Translation of this Button or what ever is in.


Thanks for the Good Simulation :-)

Speaking of FAS, it states that the SA-5 is guided by command line-of-sight with terminal active radar homing.

That was the initial idea...

I'm looking forward to the next release, and having the new ZSU-23-4 to play with.

But after that, do you have any plans?

More missions? Extra features for existing systems? Smarter enemies?

Is there any chance that the S-200 / SA-5 could receive more attention? It has a lot fewer missions than the other systems. And I think it has more missing features than most other systems.

Thank you for all your work!

The FAPA-DAA acquired a significant number of SA-3s, and these were encountered during the first strike flown by SAAF Mirage F.1s against targets in Angola ever - in June 1980. While two aircraft were damaged by SAMs during this action, the Angolans claimed to have shot down four.[2]

On 7 June 1980, while attacking SWAPO's Tobias Haneko Training Camp during Operation Sceptic (Smokeshell), SAAF Major Frans Pretorius and Captain IC du Plessis, both flying Mirage F.1s, were hit by SA-3s. Pretorius's aircraft was hit in a fuel line and he had to perform a deadstick landing at AFB Ondangwa. DU Plessis's aircraft sustained heavier damage and had to divert to Ruacana forward airstrip, were he landed with only the main undercarriage extended. Both aircraft were repaired and returned to service.[3]

Eventually Cuban troop strength in Angola increased to about 55,000, with 40,000 deployed in the south. Due to the international arms embargo since 1977, South Africa�s aging air force was outclassed by sophisticated Soviet-supplied air defence systems and air-strike capabilities fielded by the Cubans and Angolans and it was unable to uphold the air supremacy it had enjoyed for years; its loss in turn proved to be critical to the outcome of the battle on the ground.

There are several options to move forward...

1, New Historical Scenarios.
Vladivostok, Tallin (SA-2/3/5) against the Habu
Egypt (SA-2/3/Shilka) War of Attrition
Ashuluk - Strelba
Cuba (SA-2) Missile Crisis (U-2)
Syria (SA-2/3/5/Shilka) Operation Peace for Galilee (Weasels)

2, New "Realistic to the Switch" SAM systems

3, Scenario Editor

I have a question Hpasp.

Are you familiar with the DCS: World environment? And if yes, have you thought about porting a SAM system to it? Im sure a lot of people would be interested in that.

at my eyes it was a great idea BUT ! its too expensive for a one free software dude!
for doing this job hpasp need a big cash + need few programmer + work with DCS team = ? its impossible

ps: samsim is really really realistic than DCS .... DCS is just a big game, not sim

Did Hpasp autorized you to be his representative??? I am sure he would anounce it officialy if so...

Is this a pool? If so I am for new scenarios...Nothing compared to a historical scenario, played for a first time... (somethimes i feel like my heart will explode..). And I think that it is time for a new scenario, especially for SA-5...

Hunting the Habu again?
