The Iraqi army captured an APC with concrete armor

The Iraqi army seized from the militants groups ig (banned in russia) a unique trophy. We are talking about the armored vehicle with reinforced armor, according to the Russian newspaper with reference to the blog stranger_nn. According to the author, an unusual combat machine was mounted on chassis kraz-6322. And if the front of the armored personnel carriers were covered by bullets and fragments of metal sheets, the troop compartment was protected by "Two piece reinforced concrete tray". "The decision itself is quite buildable, but only to the mighty chassis of kraz, because of the smaller class of such goods could move only on the paved highway," said the author. The used layer of concrete is quite thick – not less than 10 centimeters.

But if it is a high quality and inside a well-fortified with rebar, it could protect troops from small arms. It is reported that the casualty was in the part that was closed with metal sheets. From the cockpit is almost nothing left, but the "Troop compartment" was not injured.
