Ehh? We finns never had Thunderbird, the sole SAMs we had in the coldwar days was P-125 Pechora (SA-3 Goa) and Strela-3 (Sa-7 Grail) which we recieved in late 70's.

Anyway here's next:

Finland planned to purchase either the Thunderbird or Bloodhound missile in the early 1960s. The sale ultimately did not go ahead, but the country did take delivery of some training systems which are still displayed in a Museum in Tuusula.
I have seen some pictures of Thunderbird on display in Finland so I was under impression that Thunderbird was operational in Finnish service... my mistake…

Costas is in a winning stream...That was type 55 aka "Shantou" class partrol craft, basicly P6 with all-gun armament...


But as to celebrate the begining of the nicest and happiest season, the auntum we are going to have special WWII month and all the pics will be various ships, planes and land equipment form that era. I try to post pics form all major countries...
