New Russian "Spartak" Gun Truck Destroyed In Ukraine
Published 4 months ago
Drone footage shows a relatively new Russian gun truck, the Spartak, being destroyed during combat operations in Ukraine.
The footage doesn't show the rear of the vehicle to determine of it is the two-axel model developed in 2022 or the newer three-axel variant produced since 2023. The Spartak is essentially a mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) armored personnel carrier, as it boasts a V-shaped hull and can carry 10 dismounts.
