As the news portal "Messenger of Mordovia”, Syrian government forces will continue to actively use UAZ-3151 cars as platforms for the installation of heavy machine guns.
Mainly mounted 12,7-mm large-caliber DShK, sometimes there are cars with more powerful 14,5-mm KPV. High maneuverability allows high-maneuverable operations in desert conditions.
In Iraq, the UAZ-3151 installed recoilless rifles and mounted grenade launchers.
The development of the machine began in the 1950-ies. The first model, called the UAZ-460, was designed in the 1958 year. The Soviet car turned out to be powerful, capable of carrying people and loads off-road, as well as pulling trailers and light implements. But the convenience and comfort of the car could not boast. In 1964, a trial batch of modified cars was released, named UAZ-469. In the 1985, the 469 model was upgraded, the new car was named the UAZ-3151. Her purchases for the needs of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation stopped in 2011 year.
