>>That wasn’t the question you asked.
It was the question I asked. It wasn’t the question you thought you read. I quoted the OP saying that they had put missiles on the rooftops in LONDON and its the first time since WW2. I said, “They had surface to air missiles in WW2?” By “they”, I meant the Brits (because who else would put S-A missiles on the rooftops in London??). Of course the Germans had them. They had all the cool toys.

My neighbor talked about cycling around a Liverpool park in WWII delivering these 3 inch rockets to the various launchers. His stories usually came every New Years Eve after several scotches...:^)
