The SA9 Gaskin aka the 9K31 Strela-1 is a short range IR SAM platform based on the BRDM-2 the main attack force of the USSR in a first strike would not actually be the tanks but large numbers of light strike vehicles aiming to attack tanks and enemy attack Helicopters as a shock and awe force. This would actually allow the soviets to suffer heavy casualties and expend enemy ammunition supplies on weaker targets making their main assault of tanks and infantry less vulnerable.
