RE: NGP^85 -- Self Propelled SAM ?
I think that introducing SAMs to the game in spite of some complications is very interesting. It creates new possibilities and strategic options.
The most important option is fact that SAM's indirect fire is very useful to defence frontline units from remote.
The only disadvantage is fact you can't fire at targets unseen for your own forces.
In a scenario that I'm preparing nowadays the range of majority of SAMs (SA-6, SA-8, SA-11, Hawk) is cut (more or less) by half comparing to their real range.
I assumed that in combat conditions it's impossible to effectively fire SAMs at their max. range (e.g. SA-6 at 24 km or SA-11 at 28 km).
