"Jihad-vehicles" or "Jihad-mobiles are the name given to suicide bombers' vehicles used for self-explosions. They were used, in particular, during the second Chechen campaign.

Kadyrov has handed the first Chechen-made 100 "Jihad-vehicles" for the needs of the SMO; they will be distributed by the "People's Front" public movement, the TASS News Agency reports. "In a short period of time, we managed to launch serial production of 'Jihad-vehicles'," the agency has quoted Kadyrov as saying.

Towards the end of the year, they plan to make 386 vehicles more, Adam Khakimov, deputy director of the administrative department of the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade, has promised, as the "Chechnya Today" outlet has informed.
