  • Approximately 80 countries use BRDM variants in their armed forces.
  • BRDMS are available for purchase—either by a country for military and/or law enforcement purposes, or even by individuals.
  • Many countries will willingly sell their obsolete BRDMs to other countries that will still use them.
