New BMD-4Ms with additional protection have been delivered to the operational units of the Russian army. Footage of the modernized vehicles has surfaced online.
The hull sides of the infantry fighting vehicles have been significantly reinforced by installing armored screens of a new shape that cover the chassis elements. Additional "overlays" are also visible in the front.
The protection of the commander's and gunner's sights has been improved. The turret is covered with a special net designed to neutralize HEAT projectiles.
Similar devices are also present on the BTR-MD "Rakushka" airborne amphibious armored personnel carrier.
