Description
Воин-1 (Warrior-1) assault armour suit was developed in the 1980-s with one purpose - maximum protection. As a result, for it's time this suit was immune to any handheld gunfire of it's time (at least, from the front). It was tested during Afghan conflict by 45th Independent Engineering Regiment and was deemed... HEAVY. Full suits weights around 60kg (130+ pounds) and never entered full-scale mass production. From time to time it was used by Special Forces and now, as far as I know, is replaced with Wolfhound suit.Related content
