Transport and light logistics
Use the Flatbed when the basic Kodiak lacks passenger space but the route does not need full URAL pallets. A September 14 Season 1 vehicle guide records six seats and the same fast ground-transport role as the base Kodiak.
The vehicle can also move a small logistics crate in current community records. Ask the destination what it needs before buying cargo, because a fast wrong delivery still wastes the route.
Before deployment
Fill seats, name the drop point and choose a covered approach. The Flatbed's passenger capacity makes it attractive for a squad move, but it does not turn the chassis into protected assault transport.
Check that the Driver 10 unlock and $35,000 access payment are affordable separately from the $3,000 vehicle purchase. Leave a reserve for the passengers' next trip or your own infantry kit.
Compare another option
The Kodiak has no recorded unlock payment and carries four people. The URAL is slower and more expensive but supports pallet-scale logistics, while the Humvee has a stronger protection record.
The building guide explains when a small crate is insufficient for a forward base.
Data version and sources
The official Season 02 notes supersede earlier values only where a field is explicitly named. The table labels those replacements separately. The image, physical specifications and other unreconfirmed fields remain dated records reviewed on September 16, 2026.
Earlier source record: The official Season 1 changelog establishes the Kodiak Flatbed name, Driver 10 gate and $35,000 access payment. The exact image and remaining fields are versioned community records reviewed on September 16, 2026. Current cargo prompts and capacity still decide what can be loaded.
Read every value with its version.
Official changes use first-party announcements. Item fields without a current official table remain labeled as dated gameplay records until they can be checked in the public client.
