The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation received a batch of new demining machines BMR-3MA and T-72-Б3 tanks
The new demining machine is an upgraded version of the BRM-3M Vepr and is distinguished from it by a new mine sweep. The “wild boar” was equipped with a track-type trawl and, during operation, covered only the sections necessary for the passage of caterpillars. In the BMR-3MA trawl solid, which clears all the space in front of the machine.
BMR-3MA designed on the basis of the T-90 tank and designed to clear the paths of movement of military equipment columns. They are equipped with a new solid mine tank trawl, a new climate control system, modern digital communications. Modern composite materials are used to protect the crew. BMR-3MA was first manufactured for the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation as part of the state defense order. In addition, on the basis of the BIS-3MA a controlled robotic demining complex “Pass-1” is being developed.
According to the developer, the BMR-3MA can effectively clean the roads of contact mines, its cutters chop the wires of remotely controlled land mines, and the electronic jamming system blocks the triggering of radio-controlled explosive devices. BMR-3MA makes passes up to 4,5 m wide and is designed to neutralize mines and land mines installed in snow or soil. The standard armament of the vehicle includes an 12,7-mm machine gun and eight grenade launchers for smoke screens.
T-72B3 with additional protection is able to effectively withstand the best examples of main battle tanks. Modernization has affected a number of machine systems, including the fire control system. The work was also done to automate the processes of monitoring and controlling the power plant: a controller for controlling the chassis systems was introduced to assist the driver, whose action parameters are displayed on a special display. The tank T-72B3 received effective all-protection protection. It allows you to significantly increase its vitality and effectiveness both in the conduct of combined arms combat and in the course of combat operations with the massive use of anti-tank weapons.
Work on the modernization of technology in the UVZ Corporation continues. So, as one of the directions to achieve greater invulnerability of the T-72B3 tank is the installation of the Arena-E active defense system, which allows detecting flying anti-tank weapons and significantly weakening their action, or completely destroying it with specially defended protective ammunition.
