This is the first time that such electronic warfare equipment has been installed on armored vehicles during their production. For the first time, these vehicles equipped with the Kvertus anti-drone system were demonstrated in early July this year.
Novator 2 APC were created at the request of the National Guard of Ukraine. As of today, the first vehicles are already in operation on the battlefield. The company notes that other security services are now also interested in the vehicles equipped with EW.
It should be noted that, a 10-seat version of the Novator was created at the request of the military, although the size of the updated vehicle is not too different from the previous version.
