In the Tula airborne unit, they began to study a new machine for the units of radiation, chemical and biological (RCB) protection РХМ-5М, reports Messenger of Mordovia with reference to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

The newest PXM-5M on the “Shells” chassis will begin to arrive in the Airborne Forces in 2018


This sample has already been adopted. It was created on the unified base chassis of the BTR-MDM Rakushka and “allows the RCB to conduct reconnaissance of the terrain in the combat formations of the Airborne Forces”.

“The crew of four people is able to remotely detect the presence of toxic substances in the air on the routes of troops and in their areas of concentration with the subsequent transfer of data to an automated troop control system,” the report said.

According to the ministry, the new model “is equipped with a modern automatic meteorological kit that can determine wind speed, its direction, air and soil temperature, atmospheric pressure, the degree of vertical stability of air in real time and then output data to an automated workplace of the machine commander”.

The start of serial deliveries of РХМ-5М to the troops is scheduled for 2018 year.

    One base - many different military vehicles. And it is CORRECT and NORMAL

        Comrade Marshal, it was "not everywhere" that played a cruel joke with the Nazi Wehrmacht in World War II.
        More specifically,too "motley" car park.
        As for the RF Ministry of Defense (as the heir to the USSR Ministry of Defense), continuity can be traced in the direction of unification.
        Of course, some "particulars" can be traced, but in general ...

        There is no particular sense in unification on the base chassis. Much smarter is the unification of units and assemblies.

        Suggest good sites? And for no landing method, and for the landing of the BTA.

        Where the Motherland orders.
        In general, of course, the commanders from the Airborne Forces would have to attend to the airborne landing technique using engineering equipment. For the rapid construction of field airfields capable of receiving BTA aircraft. Fortunately, the experience of the same polar explorers is huge, every year bulldozers are dumped and an ice airfield is being built.
