Russia’s KAMAZ-43269 “Vystrel” has been spotted participating in a joint patrol with Turkish forces in northern Syria for the first time. The patrol took place in the province of al-Hasakah on June 17.

The KAMAZ-43269 “Vystrel” is a wheeled mine-resistant, ambush protected (MRAP) vehicle. The vehicle is based on the KAMAZ-43269 and has increased personnel protection capabilities.

So far, such vehicles have been rarely seen in Syria. However, it seems that Russia is set to continue to field test various military equipment in combat conditions.
