D-442 FUG, Amphibious armored reconnaissance vehicle, Armored VehiclesD-442 FUGAmphibious armored reconnaissance vehicleBuilt by: HM Haditechnikai IntézetThe D-442 FUG was a Hungarian amphibious armored reconnaissance vehicle developed after a 1960 requirement to restore domestic armored-vehicle development. HTI ties the program to Haditechnikai Intézet preliminary plans, a May 1961 design team drawn mainly from Járműfejlesztési Intézet and Csepel Autógyár constructors, and Győr industrial production before 1963 introduction. Hungarian defense reporting and reference sources describe a 2,300-vehicle 4x4 scout-car line with water-jet propulsion, auxiliary belly wheels, and command, NBC-reconnaissance, engineering, and Czechoslovak OT-65 derivatives.
Lynx KF41, Tracked infantry fighting vehicle, Armored Vehicles2014 Russia-Ukraine WarLynx KF41Tracked infantry fighting vehicleBuilt by: Rheinmetall LandsystemeThe Lynx KF41 is Rheinmetall's heavy tracked infantry fighting vehicle, built around a modular KF41 chassis, Lance turret options, open digital architecture, and enough protected volume for a three-person crew plus dismounts. Hungary became the first NATO customer and production host, while Ukraine's Russia-Ukraine War entry is currently documented through German-financed supply and evaluation rather than verified battlefield employment.
D-944 PSZH, Wheeled armored personnel carrier, Armored VehiclesD-944 PSZHWheeled armored personnel carrierBuilt by: HM Haditechnikai IntézetThe D-944 PSZH was a Hungarian 4x4 amphibious armored personnel carrier developed from the D-442 FUG vehicle line for motor-rifle troop transport, force protection, and border-security roles. HTI ties the program to 1964 Ministry of Defence requirements, FUG-based redesign work, prototype and troop trials in 1966-1967, and Rába serial production from 1970 to 1979. Public sources support Hungarian, East German, Iraqi, and South Yemeni service or transfer context, but open conflict-use evidence is too thin for a separate conflict row.

BEKM-82 cumulative mine, 82 mm HEAT-fragmentation mortar projectile, MunitionsBEKM-82 cumulative mine82 mm HEAT-fragmentation mortar projectileBuilt by: HM Haditechnikai Intézet / Mechanikai MűvekThe BEKM-82 is a Hungarian 82 mm HEAT-fragmentation mortar projectile developed for automatic and conventional 82 mm mortars. HM Haditechnikai Intézet describes it as a dual-purpose anti-armor and fragmentation round: a 3.1 kg projectile with a shaped-charge effect rated for 100 mm of armor penetration. The page remains relationship-only because the public sources identify design, compatibility, and later Iraqi transfer context, but not direct BEKM-82 firing in a named conflict.
