Thankfully they painted several 2x2 inch white patches. I can barely see it with that camo

Obviously it’s to match the fact that they drew the plans up in Minecraft.

I thought they were bullet marks at first.

The low effort digital camouflage is a bit of a head scratcher

They got the Minecraft block armor out 😳

How did they obtain the MATV?
Sad-Commission2027@reddit (OP)
Probably from Saudi Arabia or the UAE

The minecraft camo was certainly a choice

I like the low effort camo, like they got a few swatches done and said "ugh this is taking to long, good enough"

Looks like they're stepping up their game with that combo! Yemeni Government National Army means business!

Not that shitty. The BTR-82A turret probably is one of the better gun systems the Russians have and freeing it form the terrible BTR hull and putting it on a modern armored jeep sounds like and overall win. Obviously this thing is ugly as f**k and way too tall though.

Russian auto cannons have terrible muzzle flash issues, not sure about the BTRs but the BMPs after like 3 rounds you can’t see shit

If OP got it right the turret is from a BTR-80A. So it isn’t stabilised.
nehibu@reddit
Fair point.

Operating the turret in Yemeni standard issue birthday suit in #4?

Way too tall, things gonna roll over soon enough
Void_The_Dragoon@reddit
On positive side means it can peak over high walls easily i suppose
XnDeX@reddit
Yeah that is something….honestly I don’t know what to say.

An i thought the ZU-23-2 on the MATV was already terrible, my god
