The Vestrel Armored Vehicle: Unleashing its Power with a 30 mm 2A42 Automatic Cannon

The Vestrel Armored Vehicle: A Threat to NATO

The Vestrel armored vehicle, known as K-43269, has been participating in a special operation almost from the moment of its creation.

New Armored Turret Equipped with 30mm Automatic Cannon

Recently, however, photos of a Vestrel armored vehicle have appeared on social media, which is equipped with the latest armored turret. The turret utilizes a 30 mm 2A42 automatic cannon capable of destroying various NATO light armored vehicles.

No Match for NATO Armored Vehicles

Despite the fact that these armored vehicles are equipped with additional protective equipment, they cannot withstand 30-mm shells fired by the Russian Vestrel armored vehicle.

Additional Weaponry

The armored turret has a 7.62 mm machine gun to engage manpower and an automatic grenade launcher mounted on the left side of the turret.

Advanced Features and High Survivability

A modern Russian armored vehicle is also equipped with an aiming device that includes thermal imaging and television channels, as well as a laser thermometer. One of the advantages of the armored vehicle is the separation of the ammunition rack from the rest of the armored vehicles, ensuring high survivability.

Powerful Engine and Impressive Speed

The armored car is equipped with a 240 horsepower engine. “Vestrel” travels at a speed of 100 km/h on an asphalt road for a distance of up to 1000 km. It has two crew members, as well as 8 infantrymen.
