This looks like quite a big difference from the original 20 years ago. The original was more like an Avenger with EO turret and added search radar. The new one looks more like Crotale-NG with AESA for guidance. This is quite a big difference, the missiles must be more capable as well, at least 10+ km to justify the cost.
SAM site proposed deployment...
Oil field? How thinly can you veil the customer you have in mind? Also wonder if UAE is interested in FK-2000/3000 since Pantsir is probably a dead end for a while.
