The 9K35 Strela 10 (ASCC/NATO-codename ‘SA-13 Gopher’) self-propelled air defence missile system comprised the chassis of an MT-LB armoured personnel carrier/multi-purpose tracked vehicle, atop of which was a small turret and pedestal with four containers for missiles. In service with the Yugoslav Army since the late 1980s, it served in limited numbers with the Serbian armed forces: one battery was attached to the 453rd Mechanised Brigade, home-based in Sremska Mitrovica, deployed to Kosovo as of 1999. This launcher – military registration 22747 – survived Operation Allied Force and in 2006 was assigned to the 1st Brigade of the Serbian Army. (Artwork by David Bocquelet)
