How Razom’s Armored Vehicles Protect Ukraine’s Heroes

In the ongoing fight for Ukraine’s freedom, humanitarian civilian efforts are safeguarding lives every day. Razom helps to make a real difference through the delivery of essential equipment to protect Ukraine’s heroes. One of their most notable contributions is the provision of armored Toyota vehicles, specially equipped to offer protection and hope in times of violence and trauma.

Protection During Evacuation

Near Avdiivka, one of the hardest-hit areas in the war, an armored Toyota provided by Razom played a critical role in saving a life. During intense shelling, a Ukrainian defender was injured when a 152 millimeter shell struck their position. Amid the chaos, medics from a nearby unit acted quickly, using the armored Toyota to evacuate the wounded soldier. The vehicle’s design, built for comfort and safety, allowed rescuers to perform emergency care while en route to the hospital.

The soldier later recalled the experience:


“I remember everything vaguely, but those events will forever be etched in my memory. The explosion was so strong that I lost consciousness for a moment. When I came to, pain engulfed my entire body, and chaos reigned around me,” he said. “As soon as I was inside the Toyota, I felt relieved. The vehicle was surprisingly comfortable, allowing medics to give me first aid even while we were moving. The armor and reliability of the Toyota gave me a sense of safety—something I hadn’t felt on the battlefield. It became more than just transport, it was my hope that I could return home.”

Fortitude Under Attack

In another case, an armored Toyota provided to a Ukrainian unit showcased its strength and reliability during an attack. While on a mission, an FPV (first-person view) drone targeted the vehicle, delivering a powerful strike. However, the Toyota’s armored body and windows withstood the impact, shielding the crew inside from harm. Thanks to its strength and density, the vehicle averted a potential tragedy. The Toyota is now undergoing repairs and will return to the frontline areas to continue its vital mission.

“This vehicle became a hero in battle, withstanding a direct hit from an FPV drone,” the soldier noted. “The strike was powerful, but the armored capsule and windows remained intact. This allowed the crew to avoid serious injuries and successfully leave the scene.”
