The Shturm-S self-propelled long range anti-tank guided missile (ATGM)
was designed in the 70s by the Kolomna Machine Building Design Bureau.
In the Soviet Army, the ATGM was adopted in antitank Army and Front brigades.
Russian Army and armed forces of several CIS countries are using the Shturm-S
at the present time.

The 9M114 missile is the world's first supersonic ATGM. It is fitted with
a solid fuel booster and mid-flight engine. The missile can be equipped
with a high-explosive warhead to inflict losses to enemy personnel and
weapon emplacements. The ATGM has a semi-automatic guidance system with
