November 29, 2017 (UkrOboronProm) BTR-4MB1, developed in Kharkiv by
specialists of Morozov Machine-Building Design Bureau, has been introduced for
the first time in Ukraine in the framework of the international exhibition
"Arms and Security 2017".
The new BTR-4MV1 is equipped with an
opto-electronic gun sight with a powerful thermal imager and a high-precision
digital fire control system. Due to this, combat vehicle crew is able to
destroy the enemy at the maximum range of the weapons not only during the day,
but also at night or under the bad weather conditions. In accordance with the latest NATO
armament trends, specialists managed to achieve a fundamentally new level of
BTR-4protection.
“BTR-4MB1 provides
the highest level of protection for this class of armored vehicles; the modular
armor approach and multi-purpose compartments, allowing to room additional fuel
tanks, floats or additional armor – we can now re-equip BTR-4MB1 in minimal
time. In addition, the use of combat modules also allows replacing of armament
of a combat vehicle. As of today, the BTR-4MB1 can be adapted for to perform
any task – from patrol to amphibious vehicle for marines. This approach – used
in the best samples of armored vehicles of NATO countries, is already
implemented in Ukrainian BTR-4", – said the head of “Kharkiv
