The Cayman vehicle can reach a top speed of 110 kilometers per hour and has a maximum range of 1,000 kilometers. To provide fire support, the six-man crew vehicle can be equipped with a roof-mounted 14.5mm or 7.62mm machine gun or alternatively the AGS-17 30mm automatic grenade launcher. The multipurpose Cayman armored vehicle was introduced within the Armed Forces of Belarus in 2017.
