Thank you for posting this beautiful BRDM2. I am quite nostalgic to see my old 'enemy' in such good condition. I spent many hours studying BRDM's, BTR's and BMP1's as they would have been the first vehicles we would meet in the good old days. The BRDM2 and the English Ferret were the best small armored vehicles of the Cold War.

Thank you for saving that awesome machine rather than being scrapped. It's wonderful to see that the previous machines of war have been turned into weekend "toys" just for fun. 😀

Excellent review! Probably the best civilian review of a BRDM-2 I have seen. Beautiful video and the shots of the guy cranking the turret around are great. I am considering buying one, only if I can find one with the turret still on it and will function (spins freely). Will have to build a quonset hut to store it in and for maintenance. There are some here in the US privately owned and street legal to operate.

God, I'd love to get a few to refurbish, etc. IT has such a long history, you know it was a very well built and reliable vehicle. (US Armor Specialist here). Where did you get it? Please respond if you can. ...I assume shipment costs major bucks from the eastern block. Thanks for the video bro. And BTW: You COULD hypothetically emplace a 7.62mm (modified gun) through the ports IF you needed. They also are said to slightly deflate the tires in snow for more traction and inflate high for any road trips for better gas mileage. PLEASE! Always wear a helmet when inside. I knew a guy who got a brain injury when inside a bdrm2 at an international armor show ..they hit a bump and the drivers hatch sprung closed and hit him in the head!....Yes even with the safety pin in place, it sheared! Be well and have fun. On a downhill berm, you can retract the mid-wheels and "slide" down a steep hill. Pretty cool.
