The Russian army used the latest automotive equipment, including the Ural-63706, also known as Tornado-U, in a special operation against the formations of Ukrainian nationalists.

For the first time, such an all-wheel drive three-axle all-terrain vehicle was demonstrated just two years ago, at the International Military-Technical Forum "Army" held in the Patriot Park near Moscow.

It is known that they have also been tested in Syria. Last year, the Urals took part in a parade dedicated to the 76th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War at the Russian Khmeimim air base.

According to the published data, the SUV is capable of transporting up to 16,000 kg of cargo. The weight of trailers, in turn, can be 12,000 kg. The total weight reaches 33,000 kg.

The 440-horsepower diesel engine is able to accelerate the car on the highway up to 100 km/h. 210 liters of fuel are placed in two tanks. This allows you to make marches to a record distance of a thousand kilometers. Length - 9550 mm, width - 2550 mm, height - 3330 mm.

A characteristic distinguishing feature of this version of Miass trucks is the presence of a protected installation located on the roof of the cab with a 7.62 mm PKM machine gun. By the way, the cabin itself can be armored.

All-terrain vehicles are used both for the transfer of personnel, various cargoes, and for the placement of weapons. For example, photos of the Ural with a rapid-firing 23 mm ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft gun appeared on the Network.

Nicknamed "Slingshot" by the troops, the gun can reach targets at an altitude of 1,500 meters and at a range of up to 2,500 meters. With its help, you can destroy various planes, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as enemy manpower, light armored vehicles.
