Question Driving a BTR

Anyone know what kind of a transmission the BTR-70 has? Automatic or manual? If it's manual, how is shifting accomplished?

Standard steering wheel or yoke?

Push button or turn-the-key ignition?

Anything else I should know about?

No, I didn't just buy a BTR. The closest I'll ever get to the real think is T2K! I have a PC in a PbP game who's just been assigned to drive a recently captured BTR and I have no idea how one would do that. I'd like my IC driving posts to be as realistic as possible. Just tryin' to keep it real, ya know what ah mean?

Thanks.
