The Marines of the Ukrainian Navy are transferred to the Kozak-2M1 armored vehicles

Ukrainian marines will be transferred to armored vehicles of the same type. The decision to equip the Marine Corps units of the Naval Forces of Ukraine with armored combat wheeled vehicles "Kozak-2M1" of Ukrainian design was taken by the Ministry of Defense of the country. This was stated by the Commander of the Ukrainian Navy, Counter-Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, reports Defense Express.

The Ukrainian military department made a decision on the transition of the Naval Forces Marine Corps to a single type of armored vehicles. In addition to the amphibious armored personnel carrier BTR-4E (with additional floats on the sides), the marines will receive Ukrainian armored vehicles "Kozak-2M1".

As explained, currently there is no uniformity of equipment in the units of the Marine Corps of the Naval Forces of Ukraine, each battalion has its own equipment. The first batch of armored vehicles has already been delivered to one of the battalions, in the future it is planned to re-equip others.

In the future, this equipment (BBKM "Kozak-2M1") will also be distributed among the Marine Corps units that perform specific tasks. But currently this technique is in the same battalion.

- said the commander of the Ukrainian Navy.

The Kozak-2M1 armored vehicle is a modification of the Kozak-2M armored vehicle for the Ukrainian airborne assault troops. It is stated that the armored car meets NATO standards for protection against small arms weapons and mine protection. The armor withstands an armor-piercing incendiary bullet of a caliber of 7,62 mm "in any projection" and an explosion of a landmine under the wheel, corresponding to 8 kg of TNT.

The armored vehicle has a fully bearing armored hull and independent suspension. The mass of the armored car is 12 tons, it is equipped with a 280-horsepower diesel engine with a volume of 5,9 liters and a torque of 950 N * m, ground clearance is 500 mm. The maximum speed is 110 km / h. Crew - 2 people + 6 people landing. A heavy machine gun in a protected turret can be mounted on an armored car.

How much will the APU buy these cars? And if tomorrow the United States hands over its Hummers, will they really refuse, for the sake of standardization?

[Uncle lee]

And where will the Hummers already transferred to them go? I remember Petro kissing them on the bumper ...

[Cananecat]

Floats are being developed for them.

[Uncle lee]

Quote: Canecat

floats.

And all on board!

[g1v2]

They will write it off on the sly. They get gold in service. And so the APC is gradually moving from chaos and armored personnel carriers to police officers, in fact, an armored car. The manufacturer of these Cossacks specializes in cash-in-transit armored cars. They have good contacts with all banks, and they are lobbying for the rearmament of not only the Marines, but also other units. What are those Marines? Two light brigades. But if you also re-equip the border guards, the National Guard and other parts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with them, then there will be other money.

[whiteidol]

I think that Americans are interested in this car as well as in Neptune. We are waiting for delivery ....

[Cananecat]

In addition to the amphibious armored personnel carrier BTR-4E (with additional floats on the sides), the Marines will receive

Tanks Stronghold with floats on board. On which board the Ukrainian military department does not specify.
Landing craft with floats on board ...
In general, it is planned to equip all the weapons of the Ukrainian MP with floats on the side ... where there are no sides, it is recommended that manufacturers make them with floats.

I do not know how there is in the swamps, but in Varna, except perhaps the seizure of sun loungers on those very sands.

home manufacturer ... so that's right, the question is, who is it equipped with, his own or again with the world on a string?

home manufacturer

from an interview with the Chairman of the Board of the League of Defense Enterprises of Ukraine, founder and owner of PJSC NPO Praktika, the enterprise where the new armored vehicle was created, Oleg Nikolayevich Vysotsky (taken from diana-mihailova.livejournal)

All over the world there are no more than 10 manufacturers producing cars of this class - in the USA, Switzerland, France. By the way, no one independently created a car of this level in the post-Soviet space.

And you say. Here the world level is almost surpassed.

Did the Ukrainian military-industrial complex have any problems with the quality of the armored vehicles produced recently?
so little things ...
let's believe it once.
and suddenly he is not lying.

[rocket757]

Do you think they want ours to check? That is unlikely ...
Will be checked elsewhere.

[rocket757]

So at the beginning it was clear that this is what it is ... but it so happens that the continuation distorts the first impression. It happens.
Although, after the boy with a cardboard tank, he is serious about their military-industrial complex, this is nonsense.

[rocket757]

And what is there on their side? Paint and machine gun?
Oh yeah, there's also a spacer, between ... between.

[uav80]

"Vangai" that the good old Soviet DShKM will be put there, so it will most likely be either Saratov or Tula production ...

[Thorvlobnor IV]

Kozak-2 was on an Iveco chassis (frame with a rear continuous axle). Kozak-2M1 - with a load-bearing armored vehicle and an independent suspension.

[Alien From]

Yes, at least they will change to reindeer, it is not interesting.

[Thrifty]

But what about the shame, or the watch? They won't do it anymore, there is no five-layer plywood for the armor? And if this kyzyak comes under fire from the checkpoint, who should I complain to about the low armor protection, or rather, none? ??

[Ruslan Sulima]

Why are you so?) Let them rearm.
New beautiful cars will be more interesting to burn)

[Thorvlobnor IV]

Kozak is much larger than the Watch and twice as heavy. Dozor is an armored vehicle for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and Kozak is a mini-armored personnel carrier for the Marine Corps.

Fair? Yes, already do not care ... New beautiful cars will be more interesting to burn)

[vvvjak]

The armor can withstand an armor-piercing incendiary bullet of 7,62 mm caliber "in any projection" and the detonation of a land mine under the wheel, corresponding 8 kg of TNT.

Not really hard to believe.

[Thrifty]

vvvjak - there are 8 kg of vukri TNT, this is about 3,5 kg of usual

[vvvjak]

Quote: Thrifty

this is about 3,5 kg of usual

0,6 kg is declared for "Tiger", but here 8.

[Thorvlobnor IV]

The "Tiger" has a frame structure, while the "Kozak-2M1" has a supporting armored vehicle with an independent suspension, hence such a big difference in protection against mine detonation.

[Atrix]

The internet is full of tests

[Sancho_SP]

1. How many Marine Corps battalions do they have?
2. What kind of machine is it actually? Really local production, or assembly of car kits?
3. Do you hear anything on the price tag?
4. Doesn't it just hold armor piercing?

[Ros 56]

Yes, even if they are transplanted onto donkeys, they will not grow wiser from this.

It's better than Nepeimama ...

[Hermit21]

In passing I read "Kizyak"

[Richard]

dung does not sink, so it is possible that for the marines and will be renamed "Kizyak-2M1"

[Lech from Android.]

One of the main targets for Cornets, Fagots and other ATGMs ... in the event of a conflict, light armored vehicles will be destroyed by dozens, hundreds.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Hopefully everything will fit in two cars?

[Evil 55]

"detonation of a land mine under the wheel, corresponding to 8 kg of TNT" Come on ... 8 kg. TNT in TM-62 will throw this piglet even to the "Heavenly Hundred" in the form of a hamburger made of armor elements with minced meat from the crew ...

[monster]

Svidomites will enter the Earth's orbit, molecules !!!

[monster]

Withstands the explosion of a land mine 8 kg ??? Bugaga) After such an explosion, "dvigun" will land in Zhmerinka, and the wheels in Konotop !!!

[TatarinSSSR]

In the place of the ukromorpekhs, I would first take the designers-developers, put them in this Kozak, put 8 kg of TNT under the wheel and blow them up. They stayed alive, they can walk - only then he himself would sit in it.

[Potomac]

A good car, clearly better Kozak 2. The troop compartment has been clearly improved, to a more adequate layout.

[Pamir]

12 tons, not frail weight, almost twice as heavy as the Tiger, does the turret rotate at the Kozak? One machine gun is not enough at the current time. The opinion is that armored vehicles are only for military police, rear guard units. For the Ministry of Defense, they are not very promising The usual armored personnel carrier80 is not superior in protection, protection against 7,62 is insufficient, an armored personnel carrier will tear off two wheels on one side, it is still capable of getting out of the fire, and a two-axle car, one wheel will lose and that's all, became a target. the tower is closed and rotates is also an advantage. For the marines, it is not an option at all, but the armored personnel carrier also walks on water. Not an axiom, just an opinion, armored vehicles are only for protecting the rear, medicine, and military police.
When will our "Boomerang" be mastered for the marines?

[tolmachiev51]

As far as it is clear - he only has a domestic "label". All the rest is "Olivier" !!! In short, nothing of its own.
