Military Vehicles [Serbia]: Yugoimport Lazar 8x8 BVT (Копнена Војска)

The Lazar BVT, is a Serbian mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) vehicle named after Stefan Lazar Hrebeljanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Стефан Лазар Хребељановић), a great 14th century ruler of Serbia who led the mighty Serbian Empire against Ottoman Turkish invasion. It is manufactured by Yugoimport SDPR, a Serbian state-owned defence company that represents the government and military industrial complex of Serbia in the sphere of importation and exportation cooperation of defence equipment and related services. The vehicle was conceived for use in urban and rural anti-infantry patrol and transport role, a supplementary vehicle meant to prevent exposure of even basic infantry units to enemy fire as well as to run support of heavier vehicles in convoy situations. Special attention was given to a high acceleration rate, stability (due to high center of gravity), hardiness, and reliability in many types of environments (fire, snow, ice, rain, mud etc). The vehicle has a standard steel hull with STANAG level III+ protection in the basic configuration, although additional laminate armor developed by Yugoimport provides an upgrade to NATO STANAG 4569 agreement level V+ armor protection. In addition to the two armor configurations mentioned, both can be upgraded with ERA packets for protection against close range urban attacks with RPG weapons, as well as other means of protecting against heavy fire. The armor itself is meant only to protect against infantry portable weapons. The ballistic glass is extremely strong, rated at level III in the front and level II+ at the sides. In addition, the specially formatted hull and internal seating arrangement affords maximum protection against IED devices, anti-tank mines and other ground-level explosive devices. Currently, there are a few variants on offer: Lazar SHORAD (Short Range Air Defense): Anti-aircraft system with 30 mm cannon M86 and Strela-10M (SA-13 Gopher) missiles. Lazar 4x4: A shorter variant with less seats and 4x4 wheel configuration. Lazar Ambulance: Personnel cab removed to house an ambulatory section. Lazar IFV: Infantry fighting vehicle with an attached 20mm auto-cannon and grenade launcher (The auto-cannon can be used in an anti air role).
