The UAZ -469 (УАЗ -469), later referred to as UAZ -3151 , is an off-road vehicle of the Soviet and Russian manufacturer Uljanowski Awtomobilny Sawod (short UAZ) from Ulyanovsk . The UAZ-469 was mainly used by the Soviet Army and other Warsaw Pact forces . In the Soviet Union, it also found widespread use in almost all state organizations that needed robust off-road vehicles.

UAZ -469 History 

Prototypes of the UAZ-469 were already available at the beginning of the 1960s. In 1961, the first copies were completed, 1962 completed the trial phase. However, it did not come to mass production. Series production of the UAZ-469 began in 1971, replacing the previously built GAZ-69 . In order to demonstrate the off-road capability of the vehicles, in 1974 with a total of three near-series UAZ -469B a test drive on Elbrus was undertaken. Within 38 minutes, the vehicles reached a height of 4200 meters.
