Armored monster in Syria. The car first hit the camera lens

During the fighting in the area of ​​the city of Harasta (the northeastern suburb of Damascus), the Syrian army used a previously unknown armored vehicle, a photo of which appeared on the Internet, reports Messenger of Mordovia.

“At first glance it is impossible to understand what is before us. One can see a certain chassis, covered from all sides by the so-called corner protection, previously used on T-72 and ZSU “Shilka”. A round tower with a large rear hatch is erected onto the hull, ”writes the author of the material, Lev Romanov.

Judging by the comments, the picture shows the BMP-1, which local craftsmen decided to increase protection. In addition, a Sparka 73-mm anti-aircraft gun was installed instead of the 23-mm gun.

According to the author, citing military experts, “this armored monster should support existing in urban areas Tanks". Enhanced protection will help the machine transport infantry more efficiently, and the installed Zu-23-2 will destroy enemy snipers and grenade launchers that are seated on floors and roofs of houses.

How effective this Syrian novelty, it will be possible to understand only after its use in combat operations.

War is the engine of progress.

Yes, the need will force - and not so much pile.

[Going]

War and not such miracles worked, it is very hard work.

[Slovak]

in the city, speed is not important. Anyway, ukrobochki with wings and coffins on narrow gauge railways are funnier

[Muvka]

Kulibins or not, one still has to believe. It is not known whether this makes sense.

[shark]

Do you know what is surprising? Duality of approaches and standards. If this were to be photographed in the atomic zone near ukrov, then the rzhach would stand noble. And the Syrians-Kulibiny ... We must try to be even in assessments. Not from the good life of such monsters do.

[Asthma]

only the "horses" the country is not torn to pieces by terrorists. and yes, one to one

And the Syrians had tremendous experience in creating advanced armored vehicles, which they would merge so ineptly ???
They have progress!
And ukrov - degress!
And the fact that they are now on the same level does not cancel admiration for some and rzhach over others ...
I don’t even see a duality in the microscope, even a bit reminiscent of “civilized” ...

[AllXVahhaB]

I did not have time (I wanted to write the same thing ...

If Ukrainians showed the same thing, then there would already be laughter and srach stood.

[Kleber]

Syrians stole from Ukrainians the latest development of strategic weapons.

[d ^ Amir]

where are the skakuasy ??? Well this is obvious !!!!! further development of the idea:

[Buffet]

That's what welding, ingenuity and some kind of mother do there

[CAT BAIYUN]

I think that the "Viper" for such purposes would fit perfectly.

[kolyhalovs]

Not from a good life, however.

[Herculesic]

Here is a prototype of a combat laser assembled on a knee, on the battlefield from improvised parts

[novel66]

Svidomitov to them for an internship!

[Astoria]

This is for sure:

[Stegosaurus Brontosaurus]

I can imagine how local experts would ridicule this curiosity if it appeared at the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

[Fight]

APU - the first army of Europe !!! According to Poroshenko Of course I would have laughed !!!

[inkass_98]

Another land "death star".

Look what you wanted ... Yes, if she still moved, she wouldn’t have a price!

[assa67]

"the" messenger of Mordovia "reports ..... it seems to me that this miracle is carried out by the Syrians from the igiloids ... recalled the concrete tank

[voyaka uh]

The appearance of such machines clearly shows
lack of specialized armored vehicles for urban fighting.
And if only the Syrians! No one has it.

[tforik]

Israel has

[A. Privalov]

The media have already reported that due to the lack of weapons, the Syrian army is using Soviet military equipment developed as far back as the 1930s.
In particular, this concerned the 152-mm ML-20 cannon of the 1937 model of the year and the X-NUMX-mm howitzer M-122 of the 30 model of the year.
Government units and allies also used other tools from the Second World War: Soviet 57-millimeter ZIS-2 and 76-millimeter ZIS-3, American 105-mm howitzer M101А1.

[Waltasar]

Very similar to the character in the center :)

[tforik]

Why reinvent? Would buy in Israel - there is a heavy BMP with maximum protection, just for street fighting. It is very difficult to disable.
