The Russian Ministry of Defense has begun training new crews for Terminator tank support fighting vehicles (BMPT). Soldiers of the tank regiment of the 90th Guards Tank Division are being trained to perform combat missions.
Servicemen are reinforcing their skills in engaging strongholds, fortified areas, armored vehicles, and manpower.
Crews perform a high-speed exit to the firing line and engage targets from paired 30-mm 2A42 cannons at a distance of up to 4 thousand meters, as well as AGS-17 "Flame" automatic grenade launchers up to 1.5 thousand meters, the department noted.
Servicemen are also practicing various tactics both in cooperation with tank crews for their cover and in independently performing combat missions to support assault units.
The "Terminators" will now be effective not only against ground targets, but also against drones. Rostec has developed a new 30-mm cartridge for the standard 2A42 cannon with a shrapnel projectile and a remotely controlled fuse for engaging drones.
