Development
The 9K111 Fagot was developed by the Tula Machinery Design Bureau (Tula KBP). Development began in 1962 with the aim of producing the next generation of SACLOS ATGM's, for use in both the man portable role and the tank destroyer role. The 9K111 Fagot was developed alongside the AT-5; both missiles use similar technology – only differing in size and can use the same launchers.
The missile entered service in 1970.
