Deployment and history Produced by the USSR/Russia, there are many export customers for this system, including Cuba, Greece (from the former East Germany), Poland, Syria, Ecuador and Iraq. After the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982, in which Syrian air defenses were obliterated by a massive air campaign against Syrian SAM sites in the Beqaa valley, the Syrians managed to deploy Osas. At least one F-4 Phantom in a SEAD mission was shot down on July 24, 1982 by an Osa system. The WSO (back seater), Aharon Katz was killed, while the pilot, Gil Fogel, survived and was held captive by the Syrians for two years. In late 1980s, Cuba deployed several 9K33 Osa units in southern Angola which posed a significant threat to South African air superiority at shorter ranges. The South African 61 Mechanised Battalion Group captured an intact 9K33 Osa anti-aircraft missile system on 3 October 1987 during the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale. This was the first time that such a system had ever fallen into the hands of non-Warsaw Pact forces, giving Western intelligence agencies an opportunity to examine an important Soviet-bloc weapon system. Iraq used Osa systems during the 1991 Gulf War. The system also saw use in the 2008 Russo-Georgian War by both the Georgian and Russian militaries. Libyan 9K33 Osa were used, and some destroyed during the 2011 Libyan Civil War by NATO airstrikes. Russian war in Ukraine The Ukrainian Joint Forces reported destruction of an Osa-AKM surface-to-air missile system of the Russian military forces in the Donbas along with a Zhitel R-330Zh automatic jamming system on 30 March 2019. Yemeni Civil War On 29 November 2019, Russian sources speculated that a Soviet made 9K33 Osa fired by Houthi forces shot down a Saudi Arabian Army Aviation AH-64 Apache. Neither Yemen nor Iran had any 9K33 Osa in their armed forces, while known
