A new Russian Pantsir-S1M air defense system mounted on a Belarusian MZKT-7930-312 wheeled chassis appeared during the Center-2026 exercises. Earlier reporting from a Belarusian opposition source said MZKT received a contract in early 2024 to manufacture 18 MZKT-7930-312 chassis for Russian Pantsir combat modules. Russia’s KBP reportedly notified MZKT on August 15, 2024 that testing of the 72V6.00.00.000-08 combat module on the chassis was completed successfully.
