[edit] Operator: Myanmar

IISS Military Balance 2007 stated 48 units of Tor Missile System in Myanmar/Burma's order of battle. However, User:85.75.82.99 claim that his "friends" in Russian MOD has confirmed that is not to be true, but he has not provided any verifiable proof that this supposed confirmation from Russian MOD. Please do not make up stories to support your claim. IISS Military Balance is a prominent publication and their information are based upon Weapon transfer registered with United Nations.

Because the deal is not confirmed yet from both Russia and Myanmar the correct is to add near to the numbers the word ,not comfirmed, to Tunguska , Tor M-1 and Buk M-1 SAMs. when then confirmed ,to remove the ,not confirmed, .

[edit] Syria

Deleted Syria from the list of operators, while referanced all accounts of Syrias use of TOR seem to originate from an Aviation Week article that miss-identified a recent shipment of PANTSIR for TOR.--Typhoon9410 (talk) 12:44, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shema Jisrael!

Syria does have the TOR and the mighty zionist warplanes neutralized these advanced russian AA weapons during their autumn 2007 bombing of the unfinished syrian nuclear reactor. The TOR system used many western-made digital electronics components for lack of russian silicon manufacturing capability. The free world design blueprints were available to the jews, who designed computer viruses to infect them. The attacking planes either carried external pod-mounted ASEA radars or were assisted by USAF F-22 stealth fighters having built-in ASEA radar and this needle-beam method was used to radiate the combat virus into the syrian-russian TORs digital electronics, so arab operators would get nonsense on the display. After the reactor was bombed to ruins, dozens of russian experts arrived in Syria to find out why their air defence malfunctioned, but could not find anything until a russian spy infiltrator obtained info on the virus trick and notified the Kremlin. 91.83.0.204 (talk) 20:01, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
