Armored Vehicles in the Ukraine you
may hear about
Here’s some
background that may help you:
Poster’s comments:
1)
These Russian made vehicles are crummy by USA and
European standards and designs.
2)
They do work, but have some suffering
going on with the occupants. Big people suffer more. Mostly they are built for
smaller people.
3)
The better variations had European,
often British, electronics substituted for the Russian versions. At least that
applies to my experience, especially the British Racal gear. As an old HAM
radio guy, I wish I had had some of this Racal gear during my HAM (amateur
radio) time.
4)
They were still pieces of crap, from
my point of view. Go USA and Europe, I would say.
5)
Compared to a truck, they are better
than nothing.
6)
Trucks are not too bad, either. That
applies to getting people around faster than on foot.
7)
Ships and trains count, too.
8)
Hence one sees a lot of images of
small trucks with people and weapons, often small AA (anti-aircraft) guns in
the bed of the truck. Obviously, that works, also.
9)
Someone is providing the ammo for
these guns, transporting it, and paying for it, too.
10) Numbers of people count, too.
11) Morale and dedication counts, also.
12) Officers, leadership, and dedication to cause, counts, too.
