I've got a couple actually-
www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/missile/row/sa-6.htm
and
www.wonderland.org.nz/sa4-5.jpg

I've found a couple more references to the SA-4, so I'll bet that the FAS site is in error. Who knows, with such an old system, and also because the data we are getting is that from US military sources - I doubt they don't know which ones are used with which, but when it hits print for those of us in the public, it's anybody's (our) best guess.

You should be able to back out of those sites to view whatever else they have that is interesting, which is not much. This thing seems to be a 30 year old system, so data seems limited. I'm still searching for photos, and I'll keep you posted.

I'm happy to report that I seem to have been wrong about those sites - it would seem that it must have been essential to put them in the place they are in and ignore security because of their worth in tracking aircraft on the range. Still seems stupid to me. Stay tuned.
