The SAM is 1950s tech, very much within the definition of low-tech (at least in CW terms). I was just stating that if a biker gang was being attacked by a bully with a 1500lb cluster bomb that they would react - it's rock paper scissors. There are very cheap ways to bring down aircraft. If you don't like pedestrians try this one :)
Unfortunately, a rat patrol special with a ring mount and some MGs isn't going to do a darn thing against most aircraft - that also requires a pickup truck BTW and is much more expensive
About 3 of these could bring down just about any chopper or microplane from the D hazards alone

I picture biker "AA" as looking more like the _Rat Patrol Special_ from _Dueltrack_ -- one of the support pickups with a Ring Mount in the bed with a brace of MGs attached. Far more useful than one-shot SAMs, to boot.
