It is noted that the enemy left the BMP almost unharmed during the shameful “meat” assault.
Our military has repeatedly encountered in battles the Russian modernization of the BMP-1 (BMP-1AM “Basurmanin”). This is the first time that it was possible to capture it in good condition.
“After carrying out the necessary maintenance work, the BMP-1AM “Basurmanin” will continue its military career, but on the side of Good as part of the 58th motorized infantry brigade,” the press service writes.
What is known about the BMP-1AM “Basurmanin”
As he says ArmyInform“Basurmanin” is a fairly simple and cheap modernization of the outdated BMP-1.
The modernization affected the vehicle’s armament. Instead of a turret with a 73-mm 2A28 “Grom” cannon, combat modules from the BTR-82A with a 30-mm 2A72 cannon with a combined sight, a 7.62-mm PKTM machine gun and the 902V “Tucha” system were installed. “Cloud” allows you to install aerosol curtains.
The BMP also received a new radio station R-168-25U-2 “Aqueduct” and a UTD-20S1 engine from the BMP-2.
Ballistic and mine protection remained at the level of the basic BMP-1. The seats do not absorb explosion energy, and the frontal projection is relatively protected only from small-caliber projectiles.
