To make nomenclature identification more difficult, every country that has purchased the BTR-4 applies their own designation.
In 2009 Iraq purchased 420 BTR-4s, but in 2014 sent back dozens of vehicles due to break downs and high levels of corrosion. As of 2018 Iraq had received 280 BTR-4s of differing configurations.
