Engineering:Strijela – 10CROA1

From HandWiki

Strijela – 10CROA1 (SLRS S-10CRO A1) is a Croatian-made self-propelled surface-to-air missile system of the Croatian Army for air defense of Croatian Army units and installations from low-flying aircraft and helicopters. It is a domestically produced version of the Russian 9K35 Strela-10 system incorporating some improvements. The system is mounted on an armored chassis of the TAM-150 6x6 truck which gives it a somewhat more practical usage. This alteration was a result of a complete shortage of MT-LB units during the Croatian War of Independence and on which these systems were usually installed. Today, Croatia has at least 9 systems of this type in its service. However, at least 3 units are now mounted on previously mentioned MT-LB armored personnel carriers.

The system is still being produced and developed by Croatian firms and is till actively marketed for export. According to the long-term defence plan, three additional units are to be produced for the Croatian military by 2012 but this number might increase. New units are to be further modernized and will incorporate additional improvements which will be retrofitted on all existing systems. After the completion of all units is over, S-10CROs are to be integrated on hulls of vastly more modern Patria AMV APCs.
