    Strange ...
    And why not the airborne RXM-5, which seemed to be unified in terms of equipment with the RXM-6?

      The presence of these machines pleases. Their presence suggests that the use of chemical weapons is possible, but useless. The one applying will certainly be hanged. Their main purpose is to control the consequences of technological disasters.

    It would probably be more correct to head the DSB and not the Airborne Forces received a new chemical intelligence machine. Nevertheless, in spite of all its advantages, the BTR-80 and all its relatives are not landing vehicles, only in a landing way.
    But of course, they did not become worse from this.
