S-75 Desna (SA-2B) Surface-To-Air Missile Site

So I've just came back from a break (that no one probably noticed since I barely upload) and decided to continue the S-75 I had planned back in August, and well here it is.

Description :

The S-75 (Russian: C-75; NATO reporting name SA-2 Guideline) is a Soviet-designed, high-altitude surface-to-air missile system, first deployed in 1957, it is the most widely used air defense system in history, with the system being used by 40 countries with 22 still operating it to this day, it is also credited with the first surface-to-air missile kill when it shot down an RB-57D Canberra over China, and the infamous shoot down of Gary Powers' U2 over the Soviet Union, the S-75 were used in Vietnam, Cuba, and the Middle East, enjoying some mild success before the way to effectively counter it was discovered, the type was mostly phased out for better systems, however it still found use either as it's original role or even modified to be a surface-to-surface missile.

In this SimplePlanes version, it's basically just a replica of the S-75 SAM system, it comes with auto aim, detaching boosters for the rockets, and a spinning replica of the P-12 search radar on the front there, the missiles are great against large, unmanuevering, and at high altitude targets, but against anything outside the three categories it sucks lmao, you can literally defeat this missile by pointing your nose to the ground, so the effective range is about 4-29km, with altitudes higher than an estimated 1.5km, it's also not mobile (obviously), so if a HARM is coming your way, well, pray.

Pitch + Roll : elevation and rotation
Select V-750VK Auto : auto-aim

    Just a quick notice, due to life stuff I would be less active than during June-August, this goes for both playing and posting, I will still post from time to time just less frequently (as if it was to begin with), but no worries I will stay here for the foreseeable future.
