Footage appeared on the network showing the YPR-765 PRI BMP, which is in service with one of the AFU units.

This is the first time that a YPR-765 combat vehicle in the PRI version produced by the Dutch company DAF was seen in Ukraine. This model was long ago withdrawn from the Dutch army and therefore at the disposal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine turned out to be from private hands

- says the publication Army Recognition.

The YPR-765 PRI was developed by DAF based on the AIFV ("armored infantry fighting vehicle") design, which was created by the American corporation FMC. It replaced the French-made AMX-VCI and YP-408 models in the Netherlands Army and entered service in 1977.

YPR-765 PRI (Pantser Rups Infanterie – "tracked armored infantry vehicle"), seen in Ukraine, is armed with a 25-mm Oerlikon KBA-B02 cannon (equipped with 180 shells, of which 105 armor-piercing and 75 OFS; additional ammunition consists of 140 rounds) and a Belgian FN MAG machine gun mounted with it in the tower (closed EWS turret). In the YPR-765 PRI.50 modification, the car is armed with an M2 HB caliber machine gun.50.

The car carries a crew of 3 people plus a landing party of 7 fighters (usually five are transported). The difference between the Dutch and Belgian versions is the placement of smoke grenade launchers. On Dutch models, a block of six PU is mounted on the upper frontal part, on Belgian models they are placed on the tower. The EWS turret is equipped with a day and night sight.
