Y'all should recall that Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union along with Russia and a bunch of other countries a while back when the SA-5 was being developed. It's hardly a "Russian" missile at all. Some may remember that its long range prowess was proven in a very unfortunate way when an SA-5 shot down an airliner over the Black Sea during a Ukrainian training exercise due to a foul up in the conduct of the exercise.
