S-200VE Surface-To-Air Missile Battery (200 Followers & Subs Special)
Yo,
Sorry (for now and in advance) for the lack of build uploads, I've been busy with college. Have this in the meantime, this was all I could do for now.
Thank you all for 200 followers and subs, appreciate a lot and really I have no words to describe it other than thank you, I am forever grateful to have you guys here liking my works and all that.
Description
The S-200 (NATO reporting name SA-5 Gammon) is a high altitude long range air defence system developed and produced by the Soviet Union in the 1960s, it was used mainly to defend highly strategic areas against large strategic bombers and other aerial threats, a typical S-200 missile complex consists of six 5P72 missile launchers, one 5N62 fire control radar, and several air surveillance radars, namely the P-14 "Tall King", 5N87 "Back Trap" or Kabina 66 "Back Net", P-35 "Bar Lock", PRV 11 "Side Net" or PRV 13 "Odd Pair", and P-15M " Squat Eye". The missiles used on this system is the 5V21, which is a large missile with a range of up to 300km depending on the variant, the missile consists of a large body with four triangular fins and four smaller control fins, in addition the missile also had four huge boosters to launch it from the ground, which would be jettisoned 3-5 seconds after launch, this allowed the missile to start at an altitude to save fuel thus increasing range.
In this SimplePlanes version, well, it is a smaller complex of the S-200VE "Vega Export" surface-to-air missile system, with one 5N62 fire control radar on the centre surrounded by three 5P72VE launchers carrying 5V28 missiles, on the corner of the complex there is the P-35 air surveillance radar, it exists for the sole purpose of spinning so that it looks cool. Just like my S-75, the missiles are only great against long range and high altitude targets, but against close range targets it sucks even more than it, because literally your minimum distance to the target is 17km, the missile just can't manuever that well, however range is this missile is made for, with 240km of range, you can hit a target on Maywar all the way from the edge of Snowstone, with the missile only traveling for about 2 minutes with it's speed of about Mach 8, all in all, it's a pretty potent long range missile.
Oh, I almost forgot, working boosters
Controls
Pitch + Roll : radar and launcher controls
Select "S-200VE Auto" : auto aim
AG8 : stop P-35 from spinning
Notes
The missile kinda "sways" at launch so the missile would always end up facing offset from the target, pretty sure it has something to do with the gyros on the boosters

Anyone else having trouble opening the build on PC? I download it but when I attempt to open it on Simpleplanes it just dosen't load
@pawpatrol02 @USSArizona yea this was due to the gyros on the boosters (possibly), there really isn't any way to fix it other than making the gyros super stable which stiffens the missile launch, sorry about that.
@USSArizona yea me to
The missiles won’t hit because for me they’re trajectory gets knocked off when they try to come off of the launcher
@plane634 thanks for considering the mobile players! I sure will try,looks beautiful! :)
@combinetheelite well, any island really... As long as you're shooting from the other island
but fr though, if you are on PC, Maywar's big enough, but on mobile, Snowstone is enough
@plane634 well what islands are big enough for this creation to be useful?
@plane634 Yeah, I think I know how to handle her, thanks buddy
@SpecialScientificSearch The missiles are like that in real life, it's less maneuverable than the S-75 as it is way heavier (2,3 tons vs 7,1 tons). The minimum distance of this missile is 17km from the target
Am I wrong? Why can't she hit like S-75?
@plane634 okay
@Yourlocalhuman @UmbrellaCorporation they're both planned, but not in the near future though
Insta upvote 😁 i wish mission build was ingame so we can add this beauty.
Cool, might you do an S-300 Missile installation next?
