From its previous MT-LB release Trumpeter now follows it up by announcing the 9K35 Strela-10 kit.
Known by its NATO code name SA-13 Gopher, the 9K35 Strela-10 is a late Cold War self-propelled surface-to-air missile system developed by the Soviet Union. It is a highly mobile, visually aimed missile platform that is based on the MT-LB tracked amphibious chassis. The 9K35 is fitted with a launcher for four Strela-10 missiles, and has been in use in Russia, as well as most Eastern European nations and in the Middle East.

Trumpeter’s Russian 9K35 Strela-10 (05554) is planned for release in June 2017. Watch this space for updates!

Always thought that the Soviets had some way-cools stuff and this just reinforces that. Like it but know that I'll never even finish what I currently have. Oh well...

I won´t buy this kit for sure because it has the same mistake as SKIF´s offer. The kit is equiped with wrong/old styled front driving lights on each side. Instead of a big single driving light it has a pair of it on each side. Inacceptable mistake in times where pictures of military vehicles are available around the web. Trumpeter, you should think about replacing your project and research team. You became to greedy in the past, because you want modelers to spend a big ammount of money for incorrect/incomplete kits. In my oppinion that´s not fair. old style common/regular style

Am I missing something here?

The Trumpeter MTLB has the first set of lights - so maybe the strela has both? Hopefully I'll get one soon!

Less concerned with the headlight accuracy than I am with the hit my wallet takes... Asking $88 is going to have it sit on someone else's shelves for a LONG time. I'll wait until it shows up closer to $40. not that I don't have enough to build until then...
