    SA-5 Gammon / S-200 Vega

    For anyone who took an interest in the thread "Can you ID this rocket?", here are some photos of the former Soviet S-200 Vega missile, known to the West as the SA-5 Gammon.

    First the missile itself, its main and tail fins, and a shot of the aft end.

    Now the booster cone and fin.

    The missile in question was on display at the Luftwaffenmuseum, Berlin-Gatow, in 2007. It might still be there... There was also another one on display at Peenemünde, though most people who go there aren't primarily after Russian missiles.
