Reliable
BRDM Upgraded for Africa
A Soviet-heritage reconnaissance platform optimised for African operational requirements.
The BRDM’s strong amphibious reconnaissance design provides an excellent foundation for land-based operations. Jorsin Enterprise’s Africa-specific retrofit programme transforms this platform into a highly capable, maintenance-friendly reconnaissance vehicle tailored for African conditions.
Optimisation Features:
- Powerpack Modernisation: Complete replacement of the outdated Russian drivetrain with readily available COTS military-proven components, eliminating spare parts logistics challenges.
- Extended Range Configuration: Auxiliary mobility wheels were removed, and the space repurposed for higher-capacity fuel tanks, significantly extending the operational range.
- Climate Adaptation: Since amphibious use is rarely necessary in Africa, the propeller drive system has been removed and replaced with enhanced cooling systems engineered for our extreme environmental conditions.
- Simplified Maintenance: Modern component selection prioritises field serviceability and parts availability across African supply chains.
Each BRDM (Africa) delivery includes comprehensive testing validation,
system commissioning, and complete operator training programmes to ensure optimal performance from day one.
