The uninhabited turret and ammunition load carried outside the armored volume of the Terminator tank support fighting vehicle (BMPT) significantly increases the vehicle's survivability when hit. The advantages of the BMPT were named by a crew member with the call sign Shchuba.
According to him, the layout of the "Terminator" favorably distinguishes it from the tank. They have the same armored base, but a "uninhabited" turret without ammunition gives serious advantages.
Therefore, the "Terminator" withstands many hits, but still remains in service. In all the time, there has not been a single case of a burned or battered tank support fighting vehicle standing somewhere.
The protection of the "Terminator" is provided by combined armor and Relikt dynamic protection. The vehicles are also equipped with "barbecue grills" to protect the upper hemisphere from kamikaze drones.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a new communication system for kamikaze drones has been developed in Russia: it bypasses all existing electronic warfare equipment.
