I guess this one is a Stormer HVM with its Starstreak SAM Launchers removed. Just like that one which is for sale in the UK

There you go then, learn something new every day. Wonder if they are retro fitted for guys in them, not that you see blokes in them , typically on top.
Here’s a view of the one for sale :

Same, thought Stormer but didn’t know which one… Never seen one without the HVM mount before
necessity is the mother of invention,
when I first saw this, I thought it was a tower behind the MT-LB, but no, it is mounted on the vehicle!
And the layout is like an updated Striker. Seats look more comfortable.
Hello, anyone know where and when was this pic taken?
I found it while searching ideas for separatist flag for my what if T90MS , the source doesn’t say much on the pic itself reddit.com: over 18?
Thanks for your answers!

Thanks! I had some guess on donetsk since I know their propaganda mix tsarism and communist imagery, but I wasn’t sure. I think I’ll use that flag for my what if novorossya T90MS using the zvezda kit. I wonder what kind of unit it’s from tho.
They are like Spartans/Strikers on steroids

T-80B?
How much did they spent in storage? 30+ years?
Hi!
The Stormer Starstreak HVM had actually 2 different verhicles. One was the launcher, the second was the Recce vehicle which looked identical as the launcher vehicle, only minus the launcher and the optics. It was called TRV (Troop reconnaisance vehicle), also used for logistics. I guess this one in the circle is the TRV.

Well once you know what they are called there are pics everywhere, and it would seem that although they aren’t launch vehicles then can be fitted as such.
AA actually make a 1/35 kit of one.
LOL, so first war were you might have to dig out parts from older models to upgrade your Russian upgraded T80 ?
There is going to be so many future rivit counter arguments coming.
and looking at the patches, the unit seems to be vostok
It would be interesting to know the story behind the message. The first two words “лысый из” is literally “the bald guy from”. Brazzers, according to Wikipedia, is a Canadian pornography company. The “bald guy” ref is probably a ref to an American porn star, who happens to be bald. So, the message is “The bald (porn star) from Brazzers”
