The Malutka anti-tank guided missile system (ATGM) has been in service in a large number of countries for several decades, asserting itself as a reliable weapon in anti-tank combat with manual and semi-automatic guidance. Since this system belongs to the second generation of long range ATGMs, incapable of destruction of modern ERA tanks, and since the service life of these missiles has either already expired or will soon expire, Serbian defence industry have implemented a reliable solution that has improved (terminal efficiency etc.) the characteristcs of the missile and extended its service life (general overhaul).

Serbian defence industry have developed, except basic missile versions 9M14M and 9M14P1, an upgrade anti-tank missile version 9M14P1B1, as well as advanced missile family consisting of MALYUTKA 2T version intended for modern anti-armor combat by neutralization and destruction of main battle tanks and other combat vehicles protected with modern armor configurations and explosive reactive armour, as well as the MALYUTKA 2F version intended for destruction of fortified targets and troops.
