South Sudan deploys S-125 SAMs

摘要

South Sudan has had S-125 (SA-3 'Goa') surface-to-air missile (SAM) systems since at least 2013, IHS Jane's can reveal. Satellite imagery from Digi-talGlobe shows 16 5P71 two-rail missile launchers for the S-125 system parked at a military camp 20 km southwest of the capital, Juba, on 9 June 2015. Although the associated radars are not visible in the imagery, the number of 5P71s suggests South Sudan has four S-125 batteries each with four launchers.
