Footage of a modernized BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle with a homemade mine roller and additional mine protection for the bottom has appeared online. The innovation was developed by soldiers from one of the repair units.
Using the heavy equipment, the BMP-2 crew confidently passes through echeloned minefields.
The main threat to equipment on the battlefield is not only kamikaze drones, but also mines. It is not so easy to hit a moving vehicle with an electronic warfare system as it may seem. But when it is blown up and stalls, losing protection from UAVs, it is very easy to finish it off with a drone.
BMP-2 is a Soviet and Russian infantry fighting vehicle. It is designed for transporting personnel of units, fire support, destruction of manpower, tanks and lightly armored vehicles of the enemy.
The main armament of the BMP-2 is a 30-mm 2A42 automatic cannon mounted in a two-seat rotating turret. A 7.62-mm PKT machine gun is paired with the cannon. A 9P135M launcher is located on the roof of the turret between the gunner's and commander's hatches.
BMP-2 Characteristics:
- Crew — 2 people, landing party — 8 people
- Weight — 14 t
- Engine power — 300 hp

- Maximum range on one refueling — 600 km
