The BTR-80 is a lightly armored personnel carrier. Its armor is enough to protect from heavy machine gun fire from the front and small arms fire from the sides and rear.
The modification kit is available with instructions on installation.
The BTR-80 AA modification is an effective air defense alternative to more expensive dedicated systems. The 12.7mm and 7.62mm machine guns are replaced with a 20mm antiaircraft gun. An automatic radar control system is added, with most of the internals inside the troop area. Ammunition for the AA gun is stored in the back, also.
The kit costs $15,000.
