One is a long range sniper rifle, the other is a sawed-off shotgun.
I am almost certain your son was speaking of the S300/400 system (their NATO reporting names are SA 10, SA 12, and SA 20). Those are the only enemy systems that would make a USAF/USN military person saythe only objective in a bad position would be to pull the eject handle. Some are calling it junk, but the US and Israeli military do NOT consider it junk one bit. When you talk to your son ask him ...I’ll bet an FR donation that he is 100% talking about the S300/400 (SA 10,12,20).
