Hello,
this is my request for Czechoslovak AAA and SAMs in 1960s:
1) heavy AAA
AAA Bty (85mm KS-12 x 6) -- Czechoslovakia [-1992] --- NEW UNIT based on # 1635 - AAA Bty (85mm KS-12 x 4)
differences from # 1635:
SENZORS / EW
1x Fire Can [SON-9] --- radar squad
1x Generic Optical Sight --- squad with optical sight working for whole battery (for all guns)
1x Mk1 Eyeball
1x Generic Binoculars --- visual search squad
MOUNTS / STORES / WEAPONS
6x 85mm M1944 --- Czechoslovakia used later variant of KS-12
1x Vehicle (Fire Can [SON-9])
1x 30mm M53/59 Praga --- one squad for close defense (czechoslovak designation: 30mm PLDvK vz. 53/59), actually its predecessor - towed version 30mm M53 (30mm PLDvK vz. 53) would be more suitable but effect is same
// 1x Binoculars (visual) --- I do not know if this has to be here or not
NOTE: 85mm KS-12 (M1944 and in Czechoslovakia also known as 85mm PLK vz. 44S) were originally deployed in rings to protect important cities in State Air Defense but later were transferred to Army which used them to early 1980s. Usually there were six guns in batteries especially later in Army organization.
AAA Bty (130mm KS-30 x 8) -- Czechoslovakia [-1992], 1x bty --- MODIFIED UNIT # 1430 - AAA Bty (130mm KS-30 x 4, Fire Wheel FCR)
differences from original:
MOUNTS / STORES / WEAPONS
8x 130mm KS-30
1x Vehicle (Fire Wheel [SON-30])
1x 30mm M53/59 Praga
// 1x Binoculars (visual) --- I do not know if this has to be here or not
NOTE: Czechoslovakia used just this one 130mm battery with eight guns. After State Air Defense got enough SAMs the battery was transferred to Army which used it to the end of 1960s/early 1970s.
2) SAMs
SAM Bn (SA-2a Guideline [SA-75 Dvina] -- Czechoslovakia [-1992], 1959, 1x bn --- NEW UNIT based on # 708 - SAM Bn (SA-2a Guideline [S-75 Dvina]; note - correct native name is "SA-75" (S-75 is for later Desna - SA-2c)
differences from # 708:
SENZORS / EW
Fan Song A [RSNA-75]
Knife Rest B [P-10]
1x Mk1 Eyeball --- to represent ability to see of two 30mm M53/59 Praga
MOUNTS / STORES / WEAPONS
Mounts
6x SA-2a Guideline Single Rail
1x Vehicle (Fan Song A [SNR-75])
1x Vehicle (Knife Rest B [P-10]) --- NEW UNIT - not in a game as "mount"
2x 30mm M53/59 Praga --- two squads for close defense
Magazines
SA-2a Guideline Battalion --- Stores: 6x SA-2a Guideline [SA-75 Dvina, 1D / V-750] (max 12) --- Czechoslovak SA-2 battalions had only 12 missiles stored, so if 6 are on the rails there can be only another 6 in battalion storage.
NOTE: Czechoslovakia obtained one battery of original SA-2a with 1D missiles. This battery was originally placed near Prague but it was transferred to Bratislava during 1962 as the original unit got new SA-2b (SA-75M).
SAM Bn (SA-2b Guideline [SA-75M Dvina] -- Czechoslovakia [-1992], 1960, 15x bn --- MODIFIED UNIT # 755 - SAM Bn (SA-2b Guideline [S-75 Dvina]; note - correct native name is "SA-75M"
differences from original:
SENZORS / EW
Fan Song B [SNR-75]
Spoon Rest A [P-12]
1x Mk1 Eyeball --- to represent ability to see of two 30mm M53/59 Praga
MOUNTS / STORES / WEAPONS
Mounts
6x SA-2b Guideline Single Rail
1x Vehicle (Fan Song B [SNR-75])
1x Vehicle (Spoon Rest A [P-12])
2x 30mm M53/59 Praga --- two squads for close defense
Magazines
SA-2b Guideline Battalion --- Stores: 6x SA-2b Guideline [SA-75M Dvina, 11D / V-750V] (max 12) --- Czechoslovak SA-2 battalions had only 12 missiles stored, so if 6 are on the rails there can be only another 6 in battalion storage.
NOTE: The first three batteries of SA-2b were acquired in 1960 together with 1D missiles, newer 11D were imported just one year later and become main missile of czechoslovak Dvina (SA-2a,SA-2b). Czechoslovak SA-2b served to the end of 1980s/early 1990s.
If further information are necessary, please let me know.
Regards,
Pavel Novak
