SAM SA-2 Guideline
The antiaircraft-missile system of average range C-75 (SAM SA-2 Guideline). Main designer is A A. Raspletin. Being derived from the S-25 anti-aircraft missile system, the S-75 was fielded in 1957 and became a nightmare for US Air Force.
This Russian defense surface-to-air missile is in early times deployed in many old former-states of Russia. This missile was in early time available in the 1/76 scale by Airfix. But, the Gran Ltd. kit is from a higher grade and is much more detailled.

ZEBRANO 72021 is an interesting kit but expensive. The chassis of PST is in my eyes from less quality. I have combinated the Trumpeter 7282 with GRAN 7209.
I will build the mobile complex S-125 Newa / Petchora on T-55
On the Internet these fla-rocket complexes can be seen in Polish and Cuban air defense (with minor differences
Question: What is the elastic tube on the right side? I suspect that the Poles have created prepared places for the vehicles. There are communications
(power supply, data transmission). The cables are connected to the vehicle and protected by a flexible metal tube (the Kopex tube) in front of the
jet when the rocket is launched
In some photos, the cables can also be seen without a protective tube. So, however, it looks more interesting from my point of view on the model
