The reloading vehicle for Tungushka M1 has these Kamaz trucks, Though they are latest but in bad shape due to lack of spares ..
Do you have any picture? I have never seen KamAZ with any branch of Indian military.

Tata Motors today said it has bagged an order for supplying 1,200 multi-axle trucks to the Indian Army. It is the single largest order awarded to an Indian company in land systems by the Indian army and comprises 1,200 units of high- mobility 6X6 multi-axle trucks, Tata Motors said in a statement. The trucks will be used for loading-unloading and transportation of ammunition pallets, spares and other operational equipment, it added. Developed indigenously, the Tata 6X6 high mobility all- terrain all- wheel drive vehicle, has completed a total trial duration of 25 months, demonstrating maximum performance in the most demanding conditions, the company said. "We at Tata Motors are extremely proud to have bagged the single largest order, among Indian OEM's from the Indian army, for the most technologically advanced high mobility load carrier system ever built here in India," Tata Motors, Vice President, Defence & Government Business, Vernon Noronha said. The order is a validation of Tata Motor's strategy and growth potential, he added. "As leading suppliers of mobility solutions to the country's security forces, we will shortly commence delivery of these high-mobility vehicles," Noronha said. Tata Motors stock was trading at Rs 401, up 0.72 per cent, on the BSE.

What do you think?

Tata Motors has supplied over 100,000 vehicles to the Indian military and paramilitary forces, having been associated with the sector since 1958.

We have long trucks that might be useful for a canisterized TEL.
