BRDM Armo

A light, armored personnel carrier BRDM (Bronirovannaya, Razvyedivatyelno-Dozornaya Mashina) was designed in Soviet Union in 1957. It’s main aims were transport of small groups of infantry, combat area’s reconnaissance (including detection of nuclear and chemical pollutions), infantry’s support and others. The BRDM was used with almost all Warsaw’s Pact armies and sold abroad, i.e. to selected Arab countries. This vehicle was undergoing several modifications into subvariants with upgraded safety of transported troops, as additional armour, defensive armament installation, and others. The oldest variant, however, was armed with SGMB 7,62 mm machine gun only. Best quality resin model kit.
