Infantry fighting vehicles BMP-1, which are in service with the Russian army and are in storage, will be upgraded. The program of large-scale modernization of the BMP-1 to the level of the BMP-1AM Basurmanin was prepared by the Uralvagonzavod corporation (UVZ, part of Rostec), Interfax-AVN reports, citing a representative of the UVZ.

UVZ has prepared a BMP-1 modernization program up to the Basurmanin BMP-1AM version




As it was explained at Uralvagonzavod, at present, the BMP-1AM is completing the test program, the other day the new BMP was tested for air transport stability. According to the available information, there are currently several hundred BMP-1 in the army, and several thousand more combat vehicles are in storage areas. The exact number of upgraded machines in the UVZ did not name, but said that the modernization program will be large-scale.



During the modernization of the BMP-1 to the version of the BMP-1AM "Basurmanin", the machine will receive a unified combat compartment from the BTR-82А with the 30-mm automatic gun 2А72, 7,62-mm PKTM machine gun. The BMP will be equipped with a fire control system with a combined daily TKN-4HA-01 anti-aircraft sight, a two-plane weapon stabilizer and anti-tank guided missile anti-tank missile 9-115 Metis. In addition, the UTD-20C1 engine and torsion shafts of high power consumption are installed on the new BMP.

            The BMP-1 has long been ridden with armor, rarely inside. But an increase in its firepower will clearly benefit the same infantry. The easiest thing is to throw something old, but reliable. Is there anything to replace? Isn't it better to upgrade and give a second life?

            And what do you think BTR-82 is much better? Or what is better than BMP-2 / BMD-2? Or maybe it's better to move around in the back of the Urals or Kamaz?
            In Chechnya, I saw MTLB with such a tower back in the mid-2000s, but this is not the best defense in the world for infantry, but better than nothing ...
            Work on new equipment is ongoing, but there is a need to see the old BMPs modernized and in large quantities ...

              How long do these jobs go? There is bmp3, why do they stick an ancient penny instead of it? The three-ruble note has both firepower and armor. And here what? Why, if there really is a war on the doorstep and all that, outdated equipment is being pushed into the army? Absolutely everything that is now in service and is being "modernized" was created in the USSR. In Russia, none of the types of weapons has such a number of receipts to the troops as before. Why? Why are we being told that we have no analogues in any of the types of weapons? Maybe it is. But where is it all? Well, after all, this is not a ship or even an airplane, this is an infantry fighting vehicle. So at least new BMP3s can provide the entire army. no, they continue to reintroduce old stuff ...

                What is the armor in the BMP-3? And how many of these BMP-3s are in Russia? There are 500 and 200 more should have been done for 2016-2017 ...

                And BMP-1 already has more than 7000 pieces in storage, not counting 2000 that are still in service ...

                What to do with them? Throw away? And how long should they wait until they are replaced by the BMP-3 with a pace of construction of 100 units per year? And the price of each is 300-500 thousand dollars ...

                The situation seems to be really heating up and decided to carry out an easy upgrade, without changing anything except the turret, in fact we get a new BMP with modern weapons ...

              Wow, it turns out BMP-2 (BMP-1 + 30mm AP) burns with the crew. It’s just interesting why the BMP-2 was loved by crews in Afghanistan, why in both BCs (with the exception of the Maikop brigade and 81 small and medium-sized military vehicles, which lost almost all of their equipment on the forecourt during the New Year’s assault), they suffered small losses, and why in Syria, out of 200 BMPs -2 lost only about a dozen? By the way, what BMPs weighing up to 30 tons do not burn, in your opinion?

              The penny has its cons: side armor from 7,62, low mine resistance and ergonomics + lack of anti-RPG and ATGM systems. At the same time, with the appearance of a 30mm artillery on it, its survivability will increase - the distance and effectiveness of detection / destruction of infantry, firing points and light / medium armored vehicles will increase, the explosiveness will decrease in comparison with the old bk.

      UVZ can prepare a modernization program for VAZ 2101. Or t 34-85 if desired. This is not a contract, not a discussion of it, not even an interest. This is just an offer. The plant is looking for new contracts. This is a normal practice. Another thing is that BMP 1 is not even the main BMP in our army. I met them last time in weapons towns, at a joke like a mock on a platform. No longer come across. But a bunch of BMP1 is in small armies that need such a cheap upgrade oh, as needed. So they will be offered it. And our MO does not need this at all. Why put 1 on modernization when BMP2 is already delivered with the anti-tank gun? Only in the summer we drove this modification.

          IDF - M113 (5), Nagmashot (heavy armored personnel carrier based on the Centurion tank) and BTR-900P (50 units).
          Which of the above do you consider to be the highest achievement of military engineering and possessing guaranteed infantry protection?
          Perhaps only "Strikers" have mine protection, but weak armor and Israeli Nagmashots, which can operate in battle formations of tanks on the battlefield ...
          Both the American M113 armored personnel carriers, the Bradley armored personnel carriers and the British Trojan armored personnel carriers and the Soviet BMP-1 were created for the use of Front groups in the European theater of operations, after the end of the Cold War, in NATO countries, there was a need for other equipment, however, no one writes off the old , modernize or spend on drink for new NATO members (Poland alone swallowed all used Leopards) ...
          All the leading countries are primarily involved in the modernization of BT, the creation of fundamentally new models can allow units (my country is among them) ....

          On the one hand, it would be better to sell, but there are better cars on the market than BMP-1. The same BMP-2 and their Chinese counterparts. The rich BMP-1 operators prefer to either replace it completely or put BM Berezhok (Algeria) on it.
          On the other hand, what to do with the existing park? Suppose they upgrade 1000-2000 cars from the latest releases - is it justified? Perhaps yes. But the modernization of the entire BMP-1 fleet is not.

      Your truth Dangerous in spite of the statements of the "guarantor" about saturation of the army with the most modern weapons they are sniffing out old stuff. The module from the BTR 82 may be going on for now, but the running trough with poor controllability on asphalt and flat surfaces. Afghan and Chechnya showed this when the side projections of the hull were shot even from a machine gun. In short yesterday! And the coolest thing is the fuel tanks in the doors of the airborne squads from behind, if you get there with a BZT bullet it burns very well.

      Because it is a homeless version of the so-called modernization. Just so cheaper. In our time, BMP with such modernization, even blacks and Arabs are ashamed to sell. For your interest, the yacht Eclipse, one of our oligarchs, costs ATTENTION how 2200 NEW BMP-3 at the maximum price!

    The point in such modernization is zero. The car is completely outdated in the sense of protection and the proposed modernization does not "cure" the word at all. Actually, the BMP-1 was made for a different concept of a military conflict.

        Yeah, given that there is no reservation for her and no one wants to move in the troop compartment, she can only deliver people to the next world. About "nothing to replace them" is also controversial.

      "Armata" is a new tank, and unique, it has everything up to KAZ and its own radar with AFAR, 100 of them are already being made for the army ... How would you like to put it on stream without running it in immediately?

    Such modernization is needed only for export to third countries and even to the most backward.
    Still, the BTR-152 would be reanimated. They are still in Syria and Iraq. Or on the BTR-50 "Berezhok" or the same tower from the BTR-82 they mastered)))
    On MT-TWT - this is somehow justified. On the cross they have no equal in the mountains and the Arctic.

    I think that this type of modernization, i.e. Basurmanin, it makes no sense. Strengthening protection up to 30 caliber is required, and the combat module is absolutely not important: you need to deliver the fighters to the front edge. And neither BMP-1, nor armored personnel carriers, nor Basurmanin can fulfill this task. Need mesh or tubular screen grilles. I would take a pipe of hardened steel with a diameter of 25 mm with a wall of 4 mm, and welded a grate from it. I would place it at a small angle to the horizon, in order to achieve the requirement to reflect 30 mm of shells around the BMP. This is the main thing in modernization. To maintain buoyancy, you need to add floats, as in Kurganets-25.
