Guys

I know that this have probably been done but I cannot find it. Looking for the Moscow SAM Ring in the late '80s or early '90s after it had converted to SA-10 but before it converted to SA-20.

CF_Dallas has posted some for early days but they are with the SA-1 and the import file in the game is set in 2008 with the SA-20s

Thank you

B

Thanks Wayne

Yes that is one I already have, based in 2008 with the SA-20's

I'm starting to build it based on http://www.ww2.dk/new/newindex.htm noticing a couple anomalies but evening them out almost on the symmetry of the original ring.

Also found this site which has a long history of the Ring: https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/thread ... twork.194/

A key paragraph for my needs is:

Tests of the Baikal system were conducted through the end of 1984, and it was decided to deploy it operationally along with the S-300P system. The deployment of S-300PT battalions around Moscow began with the external ring in 1985. Simultaneously, the S-25 positions were dismounted, and the associated equipment was taken out. There is no commonality of equipment between the two systems. Some S-300PT positions were simply built in new places, and the old S-25 positions were abandoned altogether. Typically, one S-300PT battalion was deployed in place of one S-25 regiment. Most S-300P regiments have three battalions (though some only have two), so about 20 regiments would be required to complete the ring. Through 1988, however, only eight S-300PT and S-300PS regiments had been deployed, whereas all of the S-25 units had been removed from the external ring in by 1987. The modernization of the internal ring was much delayed, and six regiments of new S-300PM systems were deployed from 1989 to 1994 (the last S-25s were removed in late 1993). So only 14 regiments were deployed in total, and that is the situation as it exists today.

So only 14 Regts of 2-3 Bns each. Should give some of the guys fits! [:D]

Here is the file. Will also add to the import/export thread above
