Soviet cold-war era armoured personnel carrier
The BTR-70 entered service in 1972 and was built in both the Soviet Union and under license in Romania. It carried a crew of two plus up to nine passengers and was armed with a turret-mounted 14.5mm KPVT heavy machine gun. Thousands were built and have been widely exported.
This example is on display in the ‘Warsaw Pact 1945-1991’ hall.
