The first UAZ-469 rolled off the assembly line of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant on 15 December 1972. This all-wheel drive off-road vehicle was produced for more than 39 years and was actively used in both military and civilian service. Since the mid-1970s, the UAZ-469 became the main commander’s vehicle in the Soviet Army, as well as in the Warsaw Pact countries. It was also delivered to Cuba, Vietnam and African countries. The vehicle could carry up to seven people, including the driver, or up to 600 kilograms of cargo.
The UAZ-469 could also tow a trailer weighing 850 kilograms. A tarpaulin awning protected passengers from bad weather. If necessary, the awning could be removed, and the windscreen could be folded on the bonnet. This significantly reduced the height of the vehicle, which allowed to transport it by air, inside a helicopter or aircraft. In August 1974, three standard UAZ-469Bs climbed Mount Elbrus to a height of 4200 meters above sea level in 38 minutes.
