I couldn't find another post on this so I thought I'd give it a try. I was doing a bit of reading on AAA weapons of the cold war and I noticed that based on what I read, several of the AAA guns in CMANO (notably the KS-12,-19,-30 and 120mm M1) had air ranges (ceiling) of between 7-15 km. In game it seems that those weapons typically only have ranges in the ~1.5-2.0 NM area which comes out to be ~3 km.

This site gives the KS-12's ceiling to be ~10.5 km KS-12
This site gives the KS-19's ceiling to be ~12 km KS-19
This site give the KS-30's ceiling to be ~13 km KS-30

The last site shows nearly all of them.

It's probably all max range, not practical range so I don't know. I just think of the lumbering B-36s and B-50s of the early cold war going up against these things.
