As part of the modernization strategy, the Serbian Armed Forces plan to overhaul 30 BTR-80A armored vehicles by the end of this year. Once the work is completed, these vehicles will be integrated into the equipment of the armored and reconnaissance battalion stationed in Niš, in the south of the country.
Next month, Serbia is scheduled to receive 16 additional vehicles of this type from Hungary. It is worth noting that the BTR-80A armored personnel carriers were manufactured in the Soviet Union in the early 1970s and 1980s, and mass production began in 1984.
