BRDM-2
Zemlja	Sovjetski Savez
Ulogu	Amfibijski oklopni izviđački auto
U službi	1962–present
Izgradio	7200

Čaj BRDM-2 (Boyevaya Razdyvatelnaya Dozornaya Mashina, Боевая Разведывательная Дозорная Машина, bukvalno "Borbeno izviđačko/patrolno vozilo") je amfibijsko oklopno patrolno vozilo koje koriste Rusija i bivši Sovjetski Savez. Takođe je bila poznata pod oznakama BTR-40PB, BTR-40P-2 i GAZ 41-08. Ovo vozilo je, kao i mnogi drugi sovjetski dizajni, izvezeno u velikoj upotrebi i u upotrebi je u najmanje 38 zemalja. Namera je bila da se zameni raniji BRDM-1, u poređenju sa kojim je poboljšao amfibijskim mogućnostima i boljim naoružanjem.

The Eyes of the Red Army

Čaj BRDM-2 was designed in the early 1960s to replace the aging BRDM-1. It was built to be a fast, lightly armored, and fully amphibious scout car that could lead the charge for Soviet mechanized divisions. Its mission was to find enemy lines, swim across rivers without preparation, and survive small arms fire. With over 7,000 units produced and exported to over 50 countries, it remains one of the most recognizable armored vehicles in the world today.

Unique Mobility & Amphibious Design

Hidden “Belly Wheels”: The BRDM-2’s most unique feature is a set of four small, chain-driven auxiliary wheels tucked into the center of the chassis. These can be lowered by the driver to help the vehicle cross wide trenches or avoid getting “high-centered” on obstacles.
Water Jet Propulsion: For swimming, the BRDM-2 uses a single water jet mounted at the rear, protected by a circular door when on land. This allows the vehicle to navigate currents and steer in the water using the same steering wheel used for road driving.
Central Tire Inflation (CTIS): The driver can adjust the tire pressure from inside the cab. Lowering the pressure increases the “footprint” of the tires, allowing the heavy 4×4 to crawl through deep mud or soft sand.
Trim Vane: A foldable “nose” or splash plate is located at the front. When entering the water, this is raised to prevent the bow from dipping under and to improve the vehicle’s “boat” characteristics.

Variants & Operational Legacy

The “BPU-1” Turret: The standard scout version uses the same turret found on the BTR-60PB. The 14.5mm KPVT heavy machine gun is devastating against light vehicles and low-flying helicopters.
ATGM Carriers (9P148): The BRDM-2 chassis was widely modified to carry anti-tank guided missiles. Instead of a turret, these versions have a retractable launcher for Konkurs Ili Peder missiles.
Chemical/Radiation Recon (BRDM-2RKh): These variants carry specialized equipment for marking contaminated zones, often seen with “flag-planting” devices on the rear to warn following troops.
Global Service: From the deserts of the Middle East to the jungles of Vietnam and the modern battlefields of Ukraine, the BRDM-2 remains in use due to its simplicity, speed, and ease of maintenance.
