From time to time, ad sites, car sites, and specialized resources post messages about the sale of armored cars and other decommissioned military equipment - up to tanks. "Popular Mechanics" has prepared an overview of what can be freely purchased and used without fear of prosecution by the law.

The most popular conversion machine is the BRDM - 2. The light reconnaissance armored car was produced in 1963-1989 in large quantities - almost 10 thousand vehicles were assembled in total. An additional advantage of the BRDM is its ability to swim. Conversion companies are ready to convert an armored car into a fishing house with all-wheel drive, or even into a leather-clad mobile office. At the same time, the match will remain the same-a 140-horsepower GAZ-41 gasoline engine with a fair appetite. The cost of the civilian version of the BRDM-2 starts from two million rubles and has no upper limit. Sometimes there are ads for the sale of BRDM-1 - it is usually not tuned.

The BTR-80 with the KamAZ engine is a huge and heavy machine (length 7.6 meters, weight 13.6 tons), it is difficult to drive on public roads on it. In addition, to control an armored personnel carrier, you must have the rights of a tractor driver of the A4 category, and the cost of a decently tuned armored personnel carrier starts from 7.5 million rubles.

On the PTS (self-propelled floating conveyor) on paved roads, you can not ride at all - a tracked vehicle weighing 24.2 tons destroys the surface. But on the off-road, it has no equal: it swims, overcomes any dirt, ditches and ditches, and a truck fits in the body.

The BTR-60, due to its venerable age, is rarely put up for sale and is expensive - from two million rubles. But it is much lighter than its modern counterpart - "only" 9.9 tons. Tuned versions are not found-usually they sell demilitarized restored cars.

The rarest armored vehicle is the BTR-152 based on the ZiS-151. Although they were released in a circulation of more than 12 thousand copies, it was a very long time ago and most of the transporters were disposed of. This APC is also not tuned, the cost of the restored car starts from 1.5 million rubles.

If you search, you can buy a tank. The light T-70 of the 1941 model comes across even on the move. You can't drive it on the road either, but you can drive it in the country. Such a car costs from five million rubles.
