Belarus has shown a new intelligence complex BRDM-4B

The Belarusian gunsmiths at the exhibition of weapons and military equipment MILEX 2019, held these days in Minsk, showed a new multipurpose reconnaissance complex BRDM-4B based on a lightly armored vehicle.

The BRDM-4B reconnaissance complex was developed by the Belarusian enterprise “Agat - control systems” based on the MZKT-490100 / V1 armored vehicle, created by the Minsk wheel tractor plant (MZKT). The mobile complex is designed for conducting troop reconnaissance, including during combat, at different times of day, in any weather and in conditions of limited visibility.

According to the developers, the complex can operate at a distance of up to 300 km from its troops and be integrated into various intelligence systems. At the same time, he is able to conduct reconnaissance of the terrain with the definition in the automated mode of the coordinates of the targets up to 15 m with the display on a digital map of the terrain. Reception and transmission of graphic and text reports in automatic mode, as well as stable communication is carried out when stopping at a distance of 300 km.

In addition, the installed BRDM-4B equipment is capable of blocking radio-controlled explosive devices, setting up aerosol and smoke screens, and ensuring the fulfillment of radiation and chemical protection tasks in contaminated areas.

The light-armored MZKT-490100 / V1 developed on the MZKT two years ago, on the basis of which the BRDM-4B complex was created, has a cruising range of up to 1 km. h

Mighty unit! Well done!

It is cheaper and safer to conduct reconnaissance from a drone. The time of the BRDM, like once the cavalry, has already passed. MZKT understands that having lost orders from the Russian defense industry for "centipedes" (and this is the near future), it is simply looking for a way to prolong its agony.

Can you look at the equipment of this pepelats? Or only I see UAV in the foreground?

Such vehicles are UAV carriers, but it’s not clear whether it can swim.

How do you know?
After all, no data on performance characteristics is reported and there are no "witnesses", i.e. those who exploited this sample of weapons and military equipment.
In my opinion, this armored car is not suitable for military intelligence. For the military and ordinary police, as a staff car, it may be useful.
Why?
The BRDM must operate off-road, overcome trenches and ditches, the channels of streams, and rivers.
That is, such a machine should have three driving axles or, at worst, retractable wheels, like the good old BRDM-1 and 2.
A reconnaissance fighting vehicle must also be able to force water barriers, albeit not large ones.
The MZKT car cannot and should not be able to, because it is an armored vehicle, such as the Tiger, but not an armored off-road conveyor.
The car has better speed on the roads (not for everyone ), economy, capacity, etc., it can carry cargo and l / s, even carry a light gun, but reconnaissance is not always possible ...

The Belarusian defense industry knows how to do interesting things!

[asv363]

By the way, they have not only military equipment at the level. Interesting dosimeters are produced, not from a cheap segment. Some models are sold only to security forces and a number of special organizations.

I’m glad for the Belarusians and for some reason I’m not surprised. People work.

[Streamil]

Serious performance characteristics, well done they can and do, one can only be happy for them, and doubly that Belarus is our only ally today, I think that in the future we will go together, but in general it was time to create a real union state a long time ago, although of course there is movement, but too slow and sometimes a step forward a step backward .. but there's nothing to be done .. a game of them and our elites, for whom their pocket is more important than an external threat and the welfare of citizens

[SERGEY SERGEEVICS]

Belarusian gunsmiths also create good military equipment that can compete with other states in the arms market.

[Karabas]

Good firefly

The Belarusians are GOOD, have created a very good armored car with independent suspension of all wheels, on its basis the Ukrainians have been releasing their "Kozak 2M" for a couple of years, which really showed themselves well in the war. By the way, such equipment is very necessary in parts of any army, it can perform many functions and tasks, if you compare this armored car with the Russian "Tiger", then the "Tiger" wins only in size.

Well, here’s how to look, the Belarusians themselves developed the chassis, and the Ukrainians used the Iveco Eurocargo ready-made ones.

based on it, Ukrainians have been releasing a couple of years

nobody releases anything based on it

Well done Belarusians!
