The first system to become operational and to see combat was the French Nord SS.10 during the early 1950s.
In these armed struggles, captured samples of Nord SS.10 ATMs by the leftist rebels were sent to China for study.
•
Beijing Industrial Academy, the predecessor of Beijing Institute of Technology, was tasked as the contractor to develop an ATM based on Nord SS.10, and the 724th Factory was tasked as the subcontractor for production.
•
These manuals became valuable reference for the developers, but the AT-1 design was not directly copied, because like Nord SS.10 and its Chinese development, 265-I, it is also a vehicle launched ATM.
•
However, the result was less than satisfactory from feedbacks, because like Nord SS.10 it is based on, 265-I ATM is a vehicle mounted ATM and could not carried by infantry.
Jean-Marie Bastien-Thiry (19 October 1927 – 11 March 1963) was a French Air Force lieutenant-colonel, military air weaponry engineer, (creator of the Nord SS.10/SS.11 missiles) who attempted to assassinate French President Charles de Gaulle on 22 August 1962, following Algerian independence.
The type was designed to meet the requirement for a launching platform for wire-guided anti-tank missiles Nord SS.10.
The US army purchased the Model 58 ENTAC with an improved warhead to replace the Nord SS.10 (or MGM-21A).
The ENTAC was designed to be a man portable weapon or operated from a small vehicle like the Jeep, replacing the Nord SS.10 in French service.
It was a derivative of the NORD SS-10 and SS-11 missiles which were surface-to-surface wire-guided missiles for use by infantry, vehicle or a helicopter primarily in the anti-tank role, but also anti-material, anti-personnel and against light field fortifications.
