properties

name	"Hull Armor"
value	"The front of the vehicle is resistant to 12.7 mm rounds from an M2 at a range of 200 m, while the sides of the vehicle are resistant to 7.62 mm AP rounds. The hull is not thought to exceed 10 mm in thickness, however the majority of the armor is sloped, thereby increasing the level of protection offered."

value	"Protection against 12.7mm and shrapnel"

name	"Applique Armor"
value	"It is possible to fit additional armor to the front of the BTR-80, which provides protection against 14.5 mm rounds and some resistance to blast damage. However this would likely have a significant impact on the platform’s mobility."
