URAL-568 Cargo Truck

  The URAL-568 is the CIS's standard medium cargo truck, affectionally known as the "Deuce and a halfski". Like others around the world, it is a wheeled 6 x 6 vehicle that has a large cargo area to the rear. Roll bars cover this, along with a Kevlar tarp (5/3) that also serves as a weather guard. Access is standard in the cab area, and the rear features a large tailgate that can be swung down for troop access. The vehicle can only carry ten personnel, and features folding seats for thier use. Each bench also features armor to protect the soldiers from fire. Additionally, the benches can fold to give extra space in the troop area. A troop strap is mounted to prevent soldiers from falling out of the rear during travel in very bumpy terrain. The cab of the vehicle has a ring mount that can mount any belt-fed heavy weapon. As well as the radio mount features power amplifiers to increase the range of any mounted radio that the unit will carry.
  It is somewhat a sluggish vehicle, with it's off-road handling not much better. But the realization is that this is not a combat vehicle, only a rear area vehicle, where total maneuverability is not needed. It is however, more maneuverable than some comparable vehicles. An additional feature is the use of the Level 2 Amphibious system, which improves the vehicle's versatility in getting to the hard spots that all cargo trucks must go to get their cargo to their destination.
