Re: SA-6 Guide
That is the radar unit. There will normally be at least one, probably more, launchers, each with 3 missiles. Primary point of aim will be the launcher.

Re: SA-6 Guide
It was discussed last night whether to aim for the radar to disable all launchers or to go for the individual launchers.
We did not know how well the visual aiming part of the launcher was modeled.
What do you think would be best?

Re: SA-6 Guide
I always go for the Radar. It is slightly smaller that the launcher but, as I say, there could be 2, 3 or even more launchers. The radar unit is not particularly hardened - particularly the rotating antenna, and I have never known a GBU or Mav to fail to take it out, even from a near miss (up to 5-10 metres). The Harm, on the other hand frequently misses, but again is usually close enough to disable it.
