Soviet-era Loaf van becomes Russia's main battlefield resupply vehicle in Ukraine
As Russia's invasion of Ukraine rumbles on, the toll of war continues to mount, with Russia losing thousands of trucks and armoured vehicles to the combat - at a rate that manufacturing capacity cannot replace.
In response, the Bukhanka - which roughly translates to Loaf in English - a Soviet Union-era van designed in 1965, has become Russia’s main battlefield resupply vehicle.
Officially named the UAZ-452, it is so-called for its resemblance to a loaf of bread.
