Appearances in Battlefield
The Vodnik appears in all modern-era Battlefield games and is usually the counterpart to the American HMMWV.

Battlefield 2
The GAZ-3937 is the Middle Eastern Coalition's medium Transport vehicle in the game. It is just like the Medium Transport vehicles from the other factions such as the American HMMWV in terms for speed, armor, and armament. The only differences between these vehicles are their models used in-game, as well as their rear passenger layout. Like the other medium transports in the game, it is armed with a 12.7mm heavy machine mun with a 360 degree firing arc with an armor-plated shield in front of the HMG's trigger that offers protection from ground level small arms fire.

Trivia

 * The GAZ-3937 is actually capable of carrying 10 soldiers, but only carries 4 in game.
 * The 3rd person in the GAZ-3937 is much more protected than the one on the HMMWV thus, making a Support user on the 3rd seat much more useful.
