A&A Model 1/72 SA-3 “GOA" (S-125 M “Neva-SC") missile system on T-55 chassis (review) by Erhan Atalay

 



The S-125 Neva/Pechora ( Russian : С-125 "Нева"/"Печора",  Nato reporting name : SA-3 Goa) Soviet surface to air-misille system was designed by Aleksei Isaey to complement the S-25 and S-75.  It has a shorter effective range and lower engagement altitude than either of its predecessors and also flies slower, but due to its two-stage design it is more effective against more maneuverable targets. It is also able to engage lower flying targets than the previous systems, and being more modern it is much more resistant to ECM than the S-75. The 5V24 (V-600) missiles reach around Mach 3 to 3.5 in flight, both stages powered by solid fuel rocket motors . The S-125, like the S-75, uses radio command guidance. The naval version of this system has the NATO reporting name SA-N-1 Goa and original designation M-1 Volna (Russian Волна – wave).



The S-125 was first deployed between 1961 and 1964 around Moscow, augmenting the S-25  and S-75 sites already ringing the city, as well as in other parts of the USSR. In 1964, an upgraded version of the system, the S-125M "Neva-M" and later S-125M1 "Neva-M1" was developed. The original version was designated SA-3A by the US DoD  and the new Neva-M named SA-3B and (naval) SA-N-1B. The Neva-M introduced a redesigned booster and an improved guidance system. The S-125 was not used against U.S. forces in Vietnam, because the Soviets feared that China (after the souring of Sino-Soviet relations in 1960), through which most, if not all of the equipment meant for North Vietnam had to travel, would try to copy the missile.

This kit released in 2019 from A&A Models Company (Ukranie)
