It is the GAZ 5903 BTR-80, introduced in 1984. http://army-guide.com/eng/product116.html http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/btr-80.htm |

Sorry, I changed it and forgot to comment that As we have several GAZ BTR already listed. For lots of russian models there are usually both a number and a more pretty name, so I thought it was better to put the number to "chassis" field (which is a kind of model-code) and keep the BTR in model name to have it listed with the other BTRs. -- Last edit: 2006-08-04 11:29:27 |

No problem! The number is a model code, but that is true for all Russian vehicles, as the model code is used as a model name. 'Pretty' names are avalable only for some cars (like 'Volga') and military codes for all the military stuff. We have other vehicles that keep to this 'rule'. /vehicle_14605-GAZ-41-08-1963.html I'd suggest we rather add the missing information to the other BTR-80. |
