Protection
Hull ArmorThe hull of the BRM-3K Rys is built from aluminium (possibly the ABT-102 alloy from Nii Stali), which is then covered with bolt-on hardened steel armour. Without the steel, the aluminium protects against small-arms fire and shell splinters Med[1]
NBC ProtectionCrew protection is provided by an NBC system that includes the GO-27 radiation detector and a borated polyethylene lining; the latter absorbs neutrons and gamma radiation and the former seals the vehicle the moment harmful contaminants are Med[1]
