The first work on the 9K35 Strieła-10 self-propelled anti-aircraft missile system (NATO code: SA-13 Gopher) began in 1968, and three years later, factory trials were carried out. In 1976, the 9K35 Strieła-10 set was adopted by the Soviet Army. Serial production began in the same year in Saratov. The Strieła-10 set was created as a successor to the Strieła-1 set. In the development of the new weapon, the emphasis was primarily on increasing the automation of the targeting and projectile firing process, as well as the significantly improved missiles of the set by using a more effective homing head. up to 5000 m. In the course of use, the set has undergone several modernizations. Already in 1979, a new missile (9M37M) with greater resistance to interference was introduced. In 1989, the 9K35M3 set was introduced with even newer 9M333 missiles. It is worth noting that, regardless of the version, the 9K35 set is characterized by very high mobility and the ability to overcome water obstacles without special preparation. The 9K35 set has been exported to many countries, including Angola, India, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary. He took part in the Angola Civil War in 1975-2002 and in the 1991 Gulf War.
