Military correspondent Dmitry Kulko rode in the new Sarmat-3 armored car. According to him, the issue of the capacity of the landing compartment remains one of the main ones.
There is not enough space inside. To fit five people into a 4-seater car, we had to perform miracles of acrobatics. If something happens, you won't be able to jump out quickly. The paratroopers say that one of the Sarmats ran over a mine and everyone inside survived. But this is more of a coincidence. In general, the paratroopers praise the Sarmat, but say that minor details need to be improved.
The Sarmat-3 is designed to transport personnel of up to four people, various cargoes on all types of roads and terrain, as well as to mount weapons and military equipment.
Characteristics of the Sarmat-3 armored vehicle:
- Combat weight - 3500 kg
- Load capacity - 900 kg
- Engine - diesel, power 150 hp
- Maximum speed - 120 km/h
- Power reserve - 500 km
- Armament - 12.7-mm Kord machine gun, 7.62-mm PKP (PKM) machine gun, 30-mm AGS-17 automatic grenade launcher, Kornet anti-tank missile system
