The BMP is a IFV not a AFV. IFV stands for Infantry Fighting Vehicle.

I love the originality of the BMP design. The BMP started the whole IFV revolution. Bradleys, Warriors etc. are just BMPs on steroid.

@Aaidas2 IVF/APCs are armored with aluminium alloy and few like the Bradley M2/M3 has no heat absorbing skin. Several times it was reported that Bradley was destroyed from few Molotov Cocktails. Aluminium become weak at 400 degrees a Molotov can burn till 700 degrees.

@Potatonaught shit, it'd be one helluva bulldozer...

KISS technology-keep it simple stupid-even a yank would be competent in this and probably but I wouldn't rule out friendly fire.If you have ever been to war you do not want to face any armored vehicle! A good vehicle in any conflict, pity fuel tanks are in rear doors,but 1113's fuel tanks are in the side ,they all burn eventually when hit.Nothing glorious about armored warfare.

Until the western block (NATO) fielded the Challanger, the Abrams and the Leopard 2 the Warsaw pact had superior attack tanks which would due to sheer numbers and comparable performance to western vehicles overrun underdefended positions. The order of battle of the RA was to call in the wrath of god on any strongly defended position by using divisional artilery, which would grind anything in the target area to dust. If Russians were good at something, its judicious use of artilery

Well to be honest the Mig-29 was better than F-16s, but worse than F-15s. On the other hand the Su-27s had comparable performance to the F-15, much more fuel and more missiles.

@Skycheif any IFV/APC is...

@ixyoux1 No apc will withstand more than this old bmp 1 would if really, todays apcs are all basicly paper armor, the stryker sides and back can be penetraded by ak rounds from a close distance... Any apc that will get hit by Ied or any sort of anti tank weapon will most likely die in it's place. A IFV/ APC is what it is, it's meant to carr infantry and support it when there's no threats around it, if there ir they must retreat or they will get destroyed instantly, doesn't matter if its us or ru
The BMP is not a tank it is an armored fighting vehicle. There is a significant difference.

altough old. the bmp still is one of the most widely used tank/personel carriers. it is reliable effective and most of all very cheap compared to western counterparts. in afrikan or middle eastern conflicts this is a vehicle of choice. altough for todays standards it lacks decent armour plating to overcome IED's or modern anti tank weaponary. But it still is more then effective enough for most of its duties.
