    ... with the TURRA 30 combat module installed


    This RCWS modular design is offered as a one-stop solution for wheeled and tracked armored vehicles. At the IDEB exhibition, it was shown mounted on a deeply modernized BMP-1. Turra 30 has a 30 mm 2A42 automatic cannon and a coaxial 7,62 mm PKT machine gun; ATGMs and smoke launcher grenade launchers can also be installed on it.

    In pursuit of fashion! Striikin, Boomerang, Patriots, as they say find 10 differences! 32 tons of 8 wheels, is it necessary to calculate how much ento will be on one wheel? Yeah - 4 tons. So it means - it won’t go on sand, it won’t go on arable land, it will fail on a wet meadow, it will be sanded on wet clay. Hooray ! Let them do it for internal use. Yes enta gun with a bolt frame like AKM and a feeder like a pump-action shotgun. We know, exploited.

    Not so bad. Right there’s a parade of wheeled armored infantry fighting vehicles recently and the trend of armament for armored personnel carriers is 30 mm and sometimes more.

    Something everything in Europe is incubator - BTRs are similar to each other
    And then the Slovaks (like the Czechs) will give all this good to the “new Hitler” whom Obama threatened.
