In May Vietnam lifted theveil of secrecy on its Scudmissile force when the military journal, Tap Chi Quoc Phong Toan Dan ( All People’s National Defence )printed a single page of photos of Missile Brigade 490.

The following month the Vietnamese‐language newspaper Bao Dat Viet (June 11,2012) released the same photograph as show pictured above right and identified themissile as the R‐17E/9K72 or SS‐1 Scud B missile.
