The buggy as a fast tank hunter

Every time we look around and see something special, we get excited. This here is a special vehicle that keeps popping up in pictures. Apparently, Ukrainians use buggies as fast tank hunters or support vehicles.

The photo series is currently from the southern front, and here you can see the buggy better. It fires an SPG-9. Because it's recoilless, there's almost more of a fireball in the back than in the front. There are also buggies mounted with machine guns or anti-tank missiles on top. They compensate for the lack of protection due to complete absence of armor by high mobility.

The SPG-9 is a Soviet classic that is quite common to see – also in other conflicts around the world. HERE you can find more information about the SPG-9.

It can be seen on Ukrainian soldiers how quickly their army is being westernized: gloves, plate carrier, helmet with active hearing protection. And an interesting Baby Yoda patch on the sleeve.
