    About the book: 2016 / “Russian “Tiger””, “Polite “Tigers””, “Our answer to the Hummer” - that’s how the Russian one was nicknamed armored car "Tiger" after "forcing Georgia to peace", the return of Crimea and the counter-terrorism operation in Syria. The car was developed at GAZ by order of the Jordanian king, but the Arabs preferred to produce this car themselves under the name "Nimr", and in Russia mass production was established at the Arzamas Machine-Building Plant. To date, the Tiger family has already exceeded 40 modifications, including combat vehicles armored with class 5 ballistic protection for the army, police and special forces, the Kornet-D self-propelled anti-tank complex based on this vehicle, command - headquarters vehicles. And today, traces of the “Tigers” can be seen both on the roads of Eurasia and in the African savannas and Latin American jungle. The author of this book is not only a professional specialist in the field of armored weapons and military vehicles (readers of this series know him from his excellent books about infantry fighting vehicles and tanks "Leopard"), but was also personally involved in the appearance of the "Tigers" in the power structures of Russia. Collector's color edition illustrated with hundreds of exclusive drawings and photographs.
