Description

Early 2009, the Serbian defense Company Yugoimport had completed the prototype of a new Multi-Role Armoured Combat Vehicle (MRACV) called Lazar. The Lazar BTR-DR-8808 8x8 is a multi-purpose armored vehicle designed following modern world trends in the development of a family of wheeled armoured vehicles intended for carrying out of a number of tactical tasks in different armed conflicts. The concept and technical solutions of the vehicle are especially adjusted to the requirements of modern infantry units and sepcial units engaged in carrying out of the tasks of antiterrorist and peace keeping actions. Special accent is made on vehicle actions in urban conditions, inhabited areas and cross-country, against enemy ambushes, anti-tank mines, improvised explosives devices, etc. The vehicle practically represents modern vehicle of MRAP class (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle) with certain characteristics (such as high mobility and fire power) of the vehicle class MRAV (Multi Role Armored Vehicle), which combines the basic characteristics of the two classes of modern wheeled armoured vehicles exceptionally important in the world today.
In the LAZAR design concept special accent has been made on the development of its high mobility, armour protection system, armament system, and the possibility of transport of 10 soldiers and the possibility of their quick dismemberment and embankment from protected positions via back door. The passenger compartment is designed so as to provide for the soldiers to be oriented toward large windows made of ballistic glass, and towards gun holes, thus enabling them excellent visibility and survey of the surrounding environment and their combat engagement by using of their personal armament.

 
Variants
- Lazar 4x4: With a 4x4 chassis
- Lazar ambulance: use as medical support armoured vehicle
- Lazar howitzer: a gun howitzer is mounted to the back side of the hull.

Armament

Various weapon stations can be mounted to the LAZAR. The vehicle weapons are installed in the space behind the driver and the commander, and in front of the embankment crew compartment. There are few optional weapon system concepts.
• Light one man turret with 12.7 mm M87 machine-gun, coaxial 7.62 mm M86 machine-gun and 4 • smoke pot launchers.
• Light one man turret with 20 mm M55 automatic cannon, coaxial 7.62 mm M86 machine-gun and 4 smoke pot launchers.
• Remote controlled overhead weapon station with 12.7 mm M87 machine-gun and 4 smoke pot launchers.
• Two axis stabilized one man • turret M-91 with 30mm M86 automatic gun, coaxial 7.62 mm M86 machine gun, ATGM subsystem Malyutka and 4 smoke pot launchers.
• Modular armoured gun mount M06 which can be fitted depending on vehicle application and the given tactical scenario with: 7.62 mm infantry machinegun M84 in the infantry variant or 7.62 mm M86A machine gun with electric triggering or 12.7 mm machine gun M87 or 30 mm M93
• Automatic grenade launcher or 20 mm M55 automatic gun.
Total combat weight of the turret/weapon station/gun-mount is from 400 kg up to two tons, while the bearing diameter is from 640 mm up to 1600 mm, depending allied armament.

Design and Protection
High level of armour protection of LAZAR is achieved by application of armoured body produced of armour piercing steel which, together with ballistic glass, basically provides for ballistic protection in accordance with STANAG 4569 standard of grade III+ (12.7x108mm b-32 from 100m) on the front side and grade II on all other sides of the vehicle. Application of combined additional armour of complex composite construction mounted on top of the basic armour provides for ballistic protection of grade V on the front side and grade IV on all other sides of the vehicle.
Introduction of reactive explosive armour system mounted on combined additional armour provides for effective protection against infantry armour piercing weapons of class RPG-7 which represent major threat to the above mentioned categories of combat. Additional bottom part of the armoured body is V shape and provides for protection against explosion of antitank mines and improvised explosive devices underneath the vehicle wheels and vehicle floor. The design of armoured body provides for fast installation and replacement of additional armour, and the installation of the same does not degrade basic functions of the vehicle.
Mobility
The Lazar is equipped with a high mobility chassis 8 x 8, and motorized with a 440 HP power engine, coupled to a mechanical synchronized gearbox. The suspension is composed by a 2 x 2 tandem axles, with leaf springs and shock absorbers. The design concept of drive and suspension of the vehicle, based on long-time studying and modelling of possible technical solutions, a principle of application of 8x8 formula has been chosen, with rigid bridges and springs which, at the same time, provides for high level of protection against anti-tank mines and improvised explosive devices, and high level of manoeuvrability outside regular roads. Central tire pressure regulation system is installed in the vehicle, and run-flat inserts may be installed into the tires which provide for driving of the vehicle even with damaged tires.
Accessories

The Lazar is equipped with central pressure regulation system for the tyres. Command information system (KIS) with GPS based navigation. Panoramic optoelectronic reconnaissance observation station, stabilized in two planes, fitted with CCD TV camera, thermal imaging camera and laser rangefinder.
