BTR-60

The BTR-60 is the first vehicle in a series of Soviet eight-wheeled armoured personnel carriers (APCs). It was developed in the late 1950s as a replacement for the BTR-152 and was seen first time in public in 1961. BTR stands for Bronetransporter (БТР, Бронетранспортер, literally "armoured transporter").

BTR-60 was a revolutionary design for its time. It had a non-standard layout for an APC. It has the crew compartment in the front, the troop compartment in the middle and the engine compartment in the rear. This meant the BTR-60 didn't have some other APC's weaknesses while it also had several disadvantages of its own.

In Project Reality, the BTR-60 is seen in the hands of the Middle Eastern Coalition, North Vietnamese Army, and Russia.
