On 21 August 1972 the Soviet Army accepted the BTR-70 into service, after development in the late 1960s under the factory designation GAZ-4905. It succeeded the BTR-60 and looks much like the BTR-60PB, with the same roof turret holding a heavy machine gun and a PKT. Thicker armour, tyres less prone to punctures and more petrol engine power were the main gains. Warsaw Pact armies and other allies received it too.
