Default Mystery Machine

The Russians are making great (and by great, I mean widespread) use of the UAZ-452 in Ukraine- they've been employed as ambulances, resupply vehicles, drone team transports, EW platforms, and even improvised APCs*. The UAF derisively calls them "Mystery Machines" (a Scooby-Doo reference) which I can totally see US troops** coming up with in the T2kU.

*For pics of a battlefield expedient up-armored version, see,

**I don't know how well-known Scooby-Doo is in other NATO countries, although if Ukrainians are familiar enough...
