Rostec announced the delivery of a new batch of modernized BREM-80 repair and evacuation armored vehicles to the troops.
According to information released by the corporation, these units received structural upgrades as well as strengthening the level of protection for their crew.
The BREM-80 is an armored technical support vehicle developed based on the T-80 tank chassis. Equipped with a gas turbine engine, the model maintains high mobility over a wide variety of terrain — a characteristic considered essential for recovery operations in areas near the front line.

Major update
Modernization is focused primarily on increasing the level of crew protection. Among the improvements implemented is a mechanical clutch device that allows evacuation of damaged equipment without personnel having to exit the vehicle, thereby reducing risk exposure during operations.
The BREM-80 special equipment package also includes a hydraulic winch for towing heavy vehicles as well as a dozer blade, which is used both to clear obstacles and to stabilize the vehicle during repair and recovery work.
Production
BREM-80 is produced by a consortium Uralvagonzavodpart of Rostec. The company is responsible for the production of armored vehicles and heavy systems used by Russian troops.
The delivery of this new batch strengthens logistics and maintenance capacity in the field, particularly in support of armored units operating in high-intensity environments.
