I'm not expert what comes to AA-systems, so excuse me about silly question...

Open Mobhack
Load Russian OOB
type BUK in the "find" box and hit search and unit #289 is found.

(same operation for the Ukrainian OOB shows none, since its called SA-11 there, as Soviet and NATO names are both used in OOBs)

Or:
File->database check utilities
select "Unit Checks" tab
select class 30 (SP SAM) and see what pops up, if not - try the other SAM or AA classes.
click on the unit name in the search report to goto the unit directly (function added in latest release)
