<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''GAZ-69''' was a [[four wheel drive]] light truck, produced by [[GAZ]] (ГАЗ, or ''Gorkovskij Awtomobilnyj Zavod'') between 1953 and 1955. From 1954 until 1972 it was produced by [[UAZ]], as '''UAZ-69''', though they were commonly known as GAZ-69s as well. <br />
<br />
Basic variant '''GAZ-69''' has a pair of doors only and most often appears with standard canvas top and upper sides. Further variant '''GAZ-69A''' (UAZ-69A) has two pair of doors. It was also produced under licence by [[ARO]] in Romania, as Muscel M-59, later modernized as the Muscel M-461. From the UAZ-69 there were developed off-road van and light truck [[UAZ-450]] and newer jeep [[UAZ-469]]. <br />

==Military use==<br />
<br />
The GAZ-69 was the basic light off-road vehicle of the Soviet Army, replacing [[GAZ-67]]s and [[Willys MB|Willys Jeep]]s. The GAZ-69 was itself replaced with the [[UAZ-469]]. <br />
<br />
It was also used as the basis for the '''2P26''' tank destroyer as well as for the '''[[GAZ 46|GAZ 46 MAV]]''', a light [[4x4]] [[amphibious vehicle]], whose design was largely copied from the World War II [[Ford GPA|Ford GPA 'Seep']].<br />
