      He didn’t even touch her ... he walked on water like a dry land ... This is just the beloved son of the great "tank God"
      Well, EVERYONE noticed it, but who didn’t notice the "high unification with BMP-1?" And all this was achieved by using BMP-1 transmission elements, and everything else was excellent.

    Dear, of course, a typo, there is most likely 7 km / h, while the performance characteristics are similar to the BMP, for 75 the car is modern and serious in all respects
