Synopsis
The SA-2, nicknamed Red SAM, is the most widely used air defense missile in history, most famous for nearly sparking a nuclear exchange between the USSR and America when one brought down a U-2 spy plane in 1960. Deployed widely against American aircraft in Vietnam the SA-2 has seen service in North Korea, Egypt, and various world conflicts including the 2003 Gulf War and remains in service today despite its aging 50-year-old technology. Using rare interviews and accounts from the Russian designers of the weapon, and supported by photographs and color artwork, Steven J Zaloga examines the development of the SA-2, linking the technical history of the weapon to its massive impact on air campaigns during the Cold War, and investigates the design changes, which helped the SA-2 stand the test of time.

I've ordered numerous books from forthehistorian. What keeps me coming back is the incredible service I receive. Books are sealed, padded, and boxed. Orders are handled quickly and efficiently. Communication has been a real pleasure. I will be back, again and again. When I go book shopping, I'll stop by forthehistorian, first. They make me WANT to do business with them - they make it a real pleasure. Thanks. :)
