Hey men, kaffi again. Ok here is a pic of the GAZ Vodnik we all know and love...
So, during this rotation, wanted to get a live action (lol sounds funny) of one, but low and behold, this is the apparent latest and greatest that I found
I should have asked what exactly it was, but my Arabic, is something to be desired, it took me a 15 minute conversation to find out that Amanikee or something like that was me, an American...what a Maroon I am
Anyways, looks like an Beefed Up, Americanized Vodnik
I'll find out what they call it and let ya know, I'll also try and get a pic of their version of an MRAP...pretty humorous

Sweet, I was about to say nice find my friend, but I see that the, now known Ain Jaria,(I never would have understood what they were saying)
is manufactured in Poland, and you are in fact a Polish PR member, good knowledge of your Countries equipment. By the way, we have Polish Soldiers working down here with us, no missions with them yet. Would be a nice coalition effort to roll out with them. Proud people, the Polish Flag is on every side of their humvee's

600 of them are in use in Iraq. And, also, they are almost complete for Polish Forces. Maybe they will be for MEC? ;>

The old Vodnik in reality or GAZ 93971
The Vodnik is fitted with the same BPPU turret, designed in late 1970s, as the BTR-80 on the top of the vehicle towards the rear. The turret is fitted with the 14.5 mm KPV heavy machine gun and 7.62 mm PKT coaxial light machine gun. The main gun is not stabilized (neither in the BTR-80 nor the BTR-80A), so accurate fire on the move is limited (only at low speeds), and the rotation mechanism is manually operated. The gunner sits in a roof mounted chair located above the flat floor behind the driver/commander and two passengers, and before the passenger bench. The gunner's station is basic, but uncharacteristically uncramped for a Soviet armored vehicle. The gunner is equipped with both 1PZ-9 (daytime) and TPN-3 or TPN-3-42 "Kristall" (night) sights. There are six 902V "Tucha" 81 mm smoke grenade launchers mounted of the rear of the turret.
The new vehicle that replaces it is GAZ TIGR
There is nothing wrong with the old one currently used in PR, except of a fact that its missing KPVT cannon turret, proper optics for day/night operations, and smoke shell launchers, and has 12.7 Kord instead on the top only.
