In Ukraine, the Kamrat armored vehicle is being developed

The company "Ukrainian armored vehicles" planned in 2020 to begin production of new special armored vehicles "Kamrat". Their development is carried out jointly with the KrAZ company.

This was told by the director of the company Ukrainian Armored Vehicle Alexander Kuzma in an interview for the television program Technique of War of the Ukrainian 24 Channel.

KrAZ-5233 with a 4x4 wheel arrangement is used as a chassis for a car. The Kamrat will be able to carry up to 10 people (2 + 8) in off-road conditions.

The combat vehicle will receive ballistic protection and underbody protection from undermining under the wheel or underbody up to 6 kilograms of TNT. The mass of the car is 16,4 tons. It will be equipped with a 6 liter 380-cylinder Weichai Power engine. from.

If we compare the new armored car with another Ukrainian-made car - Warta, then both vehicles have the same length - 7,19 meters. At the same time, the novelty's height is 2,6 meters, which is 25 centimeters less than its predecessor. Also, the Kamrat car is more than a ton lighter than the Warta, which weighs 17,5 tons.

The Ukrainian Armored Vehicle Company already has experience in cooperation with the KrAZ enterprise, together with which it previously created military equipment for the Armed Forces.

To do, to release, after all, is not necessary at all! The main thing is the creative process itself, i.e.

They stamp them with dozens of them, these scumbags, but what's the point? In any case, the output of the armored bus. Kozak, Warta, Shrek ... They are not for the front-line zone !!!
I agree, this type is also needed, but why so many variations? Moreover, of all of them, only Kozak was fully tested. And he survived. But all and sundry clone "the same eggs" ...

[Cat]

I agree, this type is also needed

As a police technique, what symbolizes. For conventional combat, such BBMs are practically useless.

The output will be another mass grave for the APU

It would be better to deal with armored personnel carriers .... a disgrace

Mobile not armed armored coffin. The right way, comrade!

The height of the T-72 tank is 2190mm, the height of the BTR-80 (without turret) is 2055mm. It turns out that KAMRAT with its profile is a grenade launcher’s dream, and the mine’s underbody protection will be useless when it detaches traction and suspension arms, which, judging by the drawing, are very vulnerable.

Anyway, the BTR-152 turns out

[Constanty]

Worse than that. BTR-152, after a little facelift and replacing the engine with a modern diesel engine with a power of 200-300 hp, in my opinion, will become the best combat vehicle in my opinion.

[Constanty]

I do not foresee luck for this car. He will be clearly overloaded. Car KrAZ-5233
which is used as a chassis, has a carrying capacity of 6000 kg, and the mass of the equipped car is 11000 kg. Even if we take max. 9000 kg payload gives us 14000 kg of curb weight.

New special Kamrat armored vehicle it's 16400 kg!!! even if it is the mass of the equipped car a not the weight of the car itself, it may be too much for the chassis, which will lead to malfunctions and low durability.
Of course, if they can weld the body properly.

Something very reminiscent of a Chevrolet Tahoe favorite car of bandits, apparently the identities of the lads entered the arms race.

[Thrifty]

Camp crematoriums will be built on its base. ..

Yes strong! High-end 3D modeling in Scakland! What does it mean - A land of uncontrollable fantasy in everything.

I didn’t understand from the picture, - are they so attached to the bottom and attach?
