An experienced prototype of the latest Russian armored personnel carrier based on the BMO-T flamethrower combat vehicle and the T-72B tank was spotted in Nizhny Tagil. Apparently, we are talking about a heavy armored personnel carrier, the hull of which outwardly somewhat resembles the hull of the heavy BMP T-15.
The new vehicle received an even more advanced unified integral armored hull with a developed upper frontal part, located at an angle of about 73 - 78 degrees.
The impressive size on the lower frontal part also attracts attention. The armored hull of the vehicle has an increased internal volume, which, according to preliminary data, provides accommodation for 8 - 10 paratroopers. At the same time, the landing party is reliably blocked by the "screen" of the new vehicle's hull during dismounting.
With a combat weight of about 45 - 47.5 tons and equipping the product with additional anti-cumulative screens and a "visor" with a high level of separation, the total armor protection of the product can reach the indicators of the Israeli APC "Nammer".
The vehicle has a front engine location and a massive rear section, but does not have any weapons.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Russian Armed Forces turned the RBU-6000 naval bomb launcher into a ground weapon. The ground installation uses recycled 212-mm RGB-60 jet bombs for firing.
