In particular, it can be used for repair missions on the railway, accompanied by logistical escorts or intelligence. Community analysts noted that the photos of Yenisei armored with the ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft installation and Turels under the UTOS machine guns are equipped with the Yenisei armored train. In addition, BMP-2 was installed on one of the platforms between the wagons. The photos were posted on the network by the Russian propaganda news agency "RIA Novosti" on June 28.
The signature states that they were made during the "combat coordination in the Krasnoarmeysk direction" (Krasnoarmeysk - the Soviet name of the present Pokrovsk) crew of the Yenisei armored train "Center". The Russian armored train "Yenisei" in the occupied territories performs the functions of combat protection, engineering intelligence, demining of railway networks and support of logistics trains for the front. It should move in front of the main composition.
Army recognition reviewers in September 2023 noted that the Russians have at least five such trains, and the locomotive and wagons of the Yenisei armored train were stolen by the Russians during an offensive in Kharkiv region. The walls of the wagons of this train are reinforced with 20 mm steel, and behind wooden panels for additional protection are placed bags of sand.
The train also has a portable complex of electronic wrestling "Kamysh", which generates "white noise" in the frequency range of 20 to 2 thousand MHz, and this does not allow to put into operation radio -controlled explosive devices. We will remind, on June 25 the Polish edition of Defense24 wrote how the military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are preparing on the western BMP M2A2 Bradley and CV9040C.
