It is known that the new BMP-3s start easily in any weather. Also, they are:

  • frost-resistant - they can be operated at temperatures down to -40°C;
  • have a day-night aiming device with independent stabilization of the field of view with a built-in rangefinder and thermal imaging camera and recognize the target even at night and far enough away;
  • equipped with a set of additional protection, consisting of armored screens and anti-cumulative grilles.

The BMP-3 will soon have anew anti-drone system. Rostec Group recently successfully tested domestic FPV drone suppression systems on infantry fighting vehicles. It is assumed that in the future, all products of the Kurgan Machine-Building Plant, which produces BMPs, will be equipped with them.
