CA-95
Vehicle-mounted SAM system
The CA-95 is a highly mobile, short range, low altitude Romanian native-made amphibious, infra-red guided surface-to-air missile system, currently in service with the Romanian Land Forces. The CA-95 is the Romanian variant of the Soviet 9K31 Strela-1 system. It can carry four infrared-guided surface to air missiles and has a firing range of approximately 4.2 km. Each TEL consists of two pairs of ready-to-fire missiles, mounted in boxes on either side of a turret on a TAB-79 amphibious vehicle. It can engage targets flying between 50 and 3,500 meters.
In 2025, CA-95 systems have been seen in use with the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
