The SA-6 Gainful (Russian:2K12 Kub) is a low-to-medium-altitude surface-to-air (SAM) missile system which entered service with Russian army in 1967. It carried 3 Kub missiles on a turntable with full 360 degree traverse with the missiles elevated to a maximum of +85 degrees. During travel, the turntable is traversed to the rear, with the missiles in horizontal position in order to reduce the overall height of the vehicle. It proved highly effective when first used by Syrian and Egyptian forces against Israeli aircraft during the early days of the Yom Kippur War (1973). There have been other operators as well and the SA-6 Gainful has seen action in subsequent conflicts such as the Iran-Iraq War, Lebanon, the Gulf War, and of late, the Yugoslav Wars
