Notes: This light Russian armored car was designed during World War 2, based on the chassis of the GAZ-64 light truck and, to a certain extent, on captured German Sd Kfz 221 armored cars. The BA-64 has a surprising amount of armor protection for its light weight, and a good amount of mobility and maneuverability. It was not meant to do any major fighting, but instead for reconnaissance, command, and convoy escort duties. The "D" model brought a wider track (to combat the tendency for the vehicle to tip on rough terrain or in tight turns), and a larger turret with heavier armament and powered traverse. By 2000, the BA-64 was used only by Yugoslavia, China, and North Korea, and in China, they were generally used only in small numbers by local police forces instead of the Army.

Twilight 2000 Notes: The BA-64 was nicknamed the Bobbie by US, British, and Australian troops that encountered them in North Korean hands during the 1950-53 Korean War; this nickname came back during the Twilight War.

Notes: This vehicle replaced earlier vehicles like the BA-64 and a host of small and medium jeep-like vehicles in Russian service for scouting purposes, and was itself replaced in service by most countries by the later BRDM-2 and 4 series vehicles. It is a basic armored car with a pintle-mounted weapon (or sometimes up to 3). The BRDM-1 features a characteristic set of retractable belly wheels to increase mobility over rough ground. It is a highly adaptable vehicle that has been modified into a number of variants. Long out of the service of most Pact countries, it is still used in 2000 by Afghanistan, Albania, Bulgaria, Cuba, Vietnam, and several African nations.

Notes: This light armored car is in use by Russian police, paramilitary, and KGB units. It is primarily used for internal security and riot control and is a replacement for the BRDM-2 in those roles. On either side of the hull is a large door for crew access. Two firing ports are on the right side of the hull, one on either side of the door, and one firing port is in the left side of the hull. On the roof is the same turret as mounted on the BTR-80, with the addition of a searchlight. The engine is at the rear of the vehicle. All windows are bullet resistant. The GAZ-39344 has air conditioning, heating, a land navigation system, and blue flashing lights.

Twilight 2000 Notes: This vehicle was never produced.
