The GAZ-66 is a Soviet and later Russian 4x4 all-road (off-road) military truck produced by GAZ. It was one of the main cargo vehicles for motorized infantry of the Soviet Army and is still employed in former Soviet Union countries.[​1] It is nicknamed shishiga (шишига), shisharik (шишарик)/shehsherik (шешерик), trueman (in Siberia).


Almost one million vehicles of this type were built for both
military and civil use. The GAZ-66 has gained legendary status in many
countries around the world due to its reliability, simplicity and
off-road capability.[​2] Since the 1960s, the GAZ-66 has been popular with armed forces and off-road enthusiasts.[​3] Production ceased in 1999, with the GAZ-3308 being produced instead.
