History and use of the vehicle:

Kozak-2 is an MRAP-class armored vehicle designed by the Ukrainian company PJSC RPA ‘Practika’. Vehicles of this class are specially adapted to protect the crew from landmine explosions and ambushes, making them extremely valuable in military operations. Kozak-2 is used for various tasks such as patrolling, escorting vehicles, communication, and fire support for personnel in combat.

This vehicle features advanced ballistic protection provided by special ultra-high-hardness alloy steel and bulletproof glass. Kozak-2 is resistant to fire from small-caliber weapons of 7.62 mm caliber, shrapnel, and mines. The crew and soldiers are equipped with anti-injury seats with five-point seat belts, which further enhances their protection.

The vehicle's armament may include a heavy machine gun or a 7.62 mm caliber machine gun, which are mounted in an armored turret with a 360-degree rotation capability. In the Ukrainian army, Kozak-2 is used by airborne troops, marine infantry, and reconnaissance units. This vehicle has also been supplied to the National Guard and the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, Kozak-2 has been widely used by various units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which attests to its reliability and versatility in challenging combat conditions.
