Historical information and use in scale modeling

The BTR-60PB armored personnel carrier was widely used by the Soviet Army from the early 1960s and was also exported to many Eastern Bloc, Asian, and African countries. It took part in numerous Cold War conflicts, including—in its PB version—the intervention in Afghanistan and in the allied countries of the Warsaw Pact. The vehicle was versatile, serving both as a transport and combat vehicle in many different terrain conditions.
