Indonesian military started buying GAZ 69 since 1958, so inevitably, they most likely ordered a bunch of other (heavier) vehicles I´ve found a link, although it isn´t saying much, but it does mention that ZiL trucks have been involved in the construction of the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium which was was built between 1960 and 1962 : https://bus-truck.id/truk/truk-zil-164-si-buaya-jonggol/10116 It is possible that these trucks were sent there in the late 1950 or early 1960s.
