The Ukrainian military captured a good trophy in the Zaporizhzhya region - a modern Russian BTR-82A, also with crew members in the kit, which will replenish the exchange fund. The mayor of Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov, announced this in Telegram, posting a video of the successful operation.

Flashback

The BTR-82A is a Russian armored personnel carrier that is a deep modernization of the BTR-80 and was adopted into service in 2013. It is equipped with a high-speed 30-mm 2A72 cannon and has protection against nuclear, biological and chemical weapons. As of 2021, Russia had only 150 such APCs (but less - thanks to the AFU for that).
