"Shushpanzery" of Ukraine. Ending. Foreign cars and pickup Yanukovych
The main problem faced by the Ukrainian armed forces and numerous semi-gang units was the extreme heterogeneity of vehicles operated in the ATO zone. Today's review shows that only the supply of spare parts becomes an incurable headache for technical deputies (if they, of course, are in the staffing table).
The "elite" units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, that is, capable of conducting adequate combat operations, received American equipment, in particular, the HMMWV M1114, for supply. One of these machines from the 80-th separate airborne assault brigade in 2016 year, flew into an anti-tank mine. History he is silent about the belonging of this mine, but everything ended tragically - out of the five that are in the HMMWV M1114 UAH, three have "disappeared" on the spot. Photos from the scene instill bustle.
Armored HMMWV M1114 UAH blown up by a mine. The surroundings of Toshkovsky. The explosion occurred under the rear left wheel.
Wonderful American chariots HMMWV М1097А2 mod. LBZ, who became trophies LDNR in Debaltseve.
Ukrainian craftsmen once again can not refuse in taste. What is a hybrid of GAZ-66 and HMMWV?
HMMWV on which she managed to earn NPO Praktika, equipping it with her armor.
Sanitary "Hummers" APU, received as a gift from the United States.
Since the outbreak of hostilities in southeastern Ukraine, the initiative volunteers, realizing the deplorable state of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, have begun to equip volunteer militants with equipment. The flow of cars went to the front. Most often these were jeeps, necessary for the unit commanders and intelligence officers, bank armored vans. It was on such a minivan that the special forces acted during the battle for the liberation of Toretsk (Dzerzhinsk). One of the group commanders recalls: "We arrived in the city on these gray bank armored cars, no one understood anything - we thought, probably, our own, because quite a few such armored cars of separators pushed". As a result, during the eight-hour 21 battle of July 2014, all these beads were burned.
In total, according to various estimates, only for the first year of the war, by the fall of the year, 2015 was purchased in Europe and more than 2 thousand of various cars were transferred to the front - jeeps, sanitary vans, trucks. It was necessary to dream of easier cars only. And these cars were bought in England, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria and Switzerland. They were distilled under their own power or imported by autocarts into Ukraine, often without documents and customs clearance. They were quickly prepared for shipment to the front line. The average cost of preparing one car (if it goes without a reservation) is about 5-7 thousand UAH, and the total average cost of a volunteer car for ATO goes from $ 2 to $ 5 thousand. Funds were collected, including through Facebook. Repair and preparation of cars is carried out on ordinary service stations, and often they don’t take money for these works from volunteers - they pay only the cost of spare parts.
Those same vans who suffered significant losses in the ATO zone. Machines are adapted only for transporting fighters to the line of contact - in no case should we push further. The cars frankly weak booking and a purely civilian chassis.
And this collector VW Transporter was equipped with a turret from MTLB.
Unconditional Shotoper zone ATO. The gift of Lithuania to the defenders of freedom of Ukraine. The value of the present is left without comment ....
Nissan, Mitsubishi and girls to collect money for the new "shushpantsiri."
Even Gelendwagen has undergone easy booking.

A bit of British technology.
About "Saxon" in the ranks of the APU a lot of talk in Ukraine. Here is one of the opinions: “The wounded, who are being taken out of the Industrial Zone on the good old Saxons, do not ask whether retired British armored personnel carriers are needed in the Ukrainian army. Of course, needed. As medical evacuation machines. There is enough space inside for the physician, standing almost to his full height, to assist the wounded man. On cross, "Saxon" - it can be said, the British "GAZ-66". Only more powerful. And does not break so often. And his armor, - and we saw it with our own eyes, - quite confidently holds a millimeter 7,62. Therefore, the military doctors on the "Saxon" calmly and quickly take out the wounded under the aimed fire. No matter what they say, non-lethal assistance on the "front end" is very necessary.

The cherry on the cake was the story of the world's largest pickup truck International МX, which was actively used by Yanukovich’s son before Maidan. The president’s family was not able to take the car with them and the hulk went to the security forces, who sent the American car to the southeastern front. The body has undergone refinement - it has been hung with sheets of steel, and also a machine-gun point has been mounted.
