“The workshop is equipped with tools and equipment for tire fitting, welding, and car locksmithing. It is capable of charging car batteries using a special device and performing diagnostic work using specialized computer equipment. In addition, the mobile workshop is equipped with a 500-kilogram capacity jib crane and a 5 ton capacity winch,” the press service said.
As noted, a certain number of such mobile workshops on pickup truck chassis have already been transferred to combat units. The repair shop is also capable of handling routine repairs and maintenance of automotive and military equipment of company-battalion level units.
