Russian military Tuk-Tuk Vintage MG, as seen in Ukraine, march 2022.
Description[]
It's a cargo Tuk-Tuk with a WW2 machine gun on the back.
Performance[]
It handles like a Tuk-Tuk.
The machine gun, assuming that it's not as warn as its age would imply, should be as effective today as the day it was new. A gun is a gun. That said, the machine gun can only be fired backwards and the vehicle lacks any armor, so it's probably meant to lighten the mood and improve morale for combat troops.
Versions and locations[]
In a future Just Cause:
- At remote military outposts.
- At times appears as a joke vehicle during military parades that otherwise feature large combat vehicles.
- A dark green Z-marked version can be found at the Castle and resort. This one is an easter egg to the real vehicle.
Russian army Z-marked version:
- Parked at street corners in occupied Ukraine towns, attempting to intimidate the locals, who probably feel that it adds insult to injury.
Trivia[]
- This joke-vehicle was photographed somewhere in russian-occupied Ukraine in march 2022.
