Looks like an SS launcher and a ZSU-23..

Maybe someone bought them on E-Bay from a Russian arms dealer and didn't realize that they were inflatable.

... maybe it came with a Russian mail-order-bride who blew them up?

You've probably seen these but they're fun to look at:

Those look like old Russian equipment (well blow up replicas) and are probably used in training.

Still looks remarkable. Perhaps for tests because it would be a bit hard to get the real thing from Russia in the Cold War. Wonder whether it was also used for teaching identification of the equipment of friendly nations as well...

I think the missile launcher is meant to represent a SCUD launcher. The other one looks like a 2S6 Integrated Anti-Aircraft Gun or SA-19 GRISOM Surface-To-Air Missile System. That is the ones I know that have that look to them.
