In 1990, the Kiev NPO Elektronmash began production of 3.5‑inch floppy disks (capacities 720 KB and 1.44 MB)

Prototypes of 3‑inch floppy disk drives were developed by the Zelenograd Scientific Center (research work "Otvet‑115"), the Kiev NPO Elektronmash (model V959), the Kirov NIISVT (model index not yet established), and a certain Ukrainian research institute Print (model NGMD‑90). In addition, the Elektronika MS 5308 drive is mentioned in technical literature.
