@@canadiandefenceinitiative3599 I was in the 3rd year of officer training, 1 year before graduation. There things fell apart at a breathtaking speed in 1989, starting from the expulsion of the StaSi from all military bases to marching discipline being ignored. Superiors did not dare to enforce rules anymore and every day a suddenly brave and investigative media exposed new 'skeletons in the closet' of our leaders. Most GDR citizens evrn before 89 had a quite good idea that they were being lied to by their leaders. I'm not aware about large numbers of people trying fight the change that was in the air. The main disagreement was about the speed and where it was to lead.

SA2 vision was quite blury when fired at formations of aircraft had a tendency to aim at the sum of the radar return. So it could be flying straight between two aircraft in formation. But against a lonely U2 had a much better chance. Because of pilot reports USA soon figured this out. Then comes the order if you do not see the SAM stay in formation.

Soviet Union licensed it to China which supplied them to North Vietnam. It caused huge losses of USAF aircraft including shooting down a dozen B-52s over Hanoi during 1973 Operation Linebacker.

This is wrong, the radio guidance of the missile does not work how it is described in the video. The missile does not receive the location and vector information of the target from the guidance computers at the site. Those informations are gathered by a radar and after that the guidance computers create signals for missile correction which are then sent to the missile. Radio command guidance, that is how it works.

The Republic of Cyprus aquired these missiles in the 1960's but because we "believe" that Greece will defend us (which it has never done) we had western pressure and we decided to leave them in Egypt. In 1974 Cyprus was invaded by Turkey but we had no air cover.
