Re: APC Development and related topics.
 

In other article is stated that this vehicle is an APC and Ukraine long before full scalle war have similar concept of APC build on T-64 chasis and was called BMPV-64 by Kharkiv Armor Plant. So I'm a little bit confused this improvised vehicle is ARV or APC ? :( from other side BMPV-64 was never build in series and there is no info that prototype is used now so who now.

Oryx also mention about Ovod APC build on Gaz-66 light truck chasis. only prototype was build but is actively used in fights here is a link about this vehicle

Re: APC Development and related topics.
 

Ya know, that pixelated cammo does a pretty good job of breaking up the vehicles silhouette. You actually have to look twice to be sure it's a Bradley.

The order of the stories may change depending on when this is viewed but the one that caught my eye was "Volunteers build ‘Frankenstein’ vehicles to aid the Ukraine effort"

Which look like a lot of things that were built during the Spanish Civil war ( and for the same reasons )
