Russian engineers are actively modernizing BMD-2 infantry fighting vehicles, BTR-D armored personnel carriers, and BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicles. Military analyst Evgeny Damantsev pointed out the need to modernize the BMD-2s in service with the Russian Airborne Forces to the level of BMD-2M with the Tula combat module "Bereh" from KBP.
He noted that this module has a paired launcher "Cornet" with 9M133M-2/FM-3 anti-tank missiles with a range of up to 8 and 10 km in the daytime, respectively.
Armor penetration - up to 1250 mm behind dynamic protection and the ability to intercept helicopters, airplanes and medium-sized UAVs at low and medium altitudes with speeds up to 900 km/h.
Also noteworthy is the modern Sodema gunner-operator sight. It is capable of detecting and classifying a "tank" type target in the thermal imaging channel at a distance of up to 3.7 km. It is at this distance that the Cornet ATGM can be effectively used at night in the fire control system of the Bereg combat module.
