The BTR-4E is a modern Ukrainian armored personnel carrier, representing the pride of domestic engineering. The IBG 72117 BTR-4E Ukrainian APC 1/72 scale model is a faithful miniature of this combat vehicle, which has been used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine from 2010 to the present day. The vehicle was designed at the Morozov Ukrainian Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering, and the first units entered military service during the intensive modernization of Ukraine's armed forces, enhancing operational capabilities both in peacekeeping operations and during active armed conflicts, especially after 2014.

Historically, the BTR-4E has proven itself during numerous internal operations as well as international peacekeeping missions. Designed to transport up to 11 soldiers and provide fire support, it is equipped with a diesel engine and four-axle drive, as well as the ability to overcome water obstacles thanks to a specially constructed hull. Thanks to modern observation and fire-control systems, this vehicle meets the latest standards of today’s battlefield.
