The Ministry of Defense announced plans for the supply of armored personnel carriers in the Ground Forces

By the end of this year, ground forces will receive over 460 new and modernized armored personnel carriers as part of the state defense order. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense.

The military department stressed that it is expected to supply armored vehicles with "improved combat and running characteristics." Modern armored personnel carriers BTR-82A and modernized BTR-82AM will be delivered to the SV. In total, it is planned to supply more than 460 armored personnel carriers to the troops.

Until the end of this year, the delivery of more than 460 modern armored personnel carriers BTR-82A and modernized BTR-82AM to the Ground Forces units has been planned. They are designed to transport units, their fire support in battle, as well as to destroy manpower, anti-tank weapons and lightly armored enemy vehicles

- said in a statement.

It is clarified that the BTR-82A and BTR-82AM use anti-shatter protection from multilayer synthetic material on the inner surfaces of the body, as well as anti-mine flooring. In addition, the seats in armored personnel carriers are made on a special suspension. The BTR is armed with a new combat module with an automatic gun 2A72 30-mm caliber and a 7,62-mm PKTM machine gun.

BTR-82AM - a combat wheeled floating vehicle for transporting motorized rifle units, marine units, capable of providing fire support on the battlefield. BTR-82AM is a deep modernization of the BTR-80 and adopted by the Russian army in 2013.

It is clarified that the BTR-82A and BTR-82AM use anti-shatter protection from multilayer synthetic material on the inner surfaces of the body, as well as anti-mine flooring. In addition, the seats in armored personnel carriers are made on a special suspension.

However, it’s safer to sit on armored personnel carriers. In the case of a landmine on the armor, there are just more chances. Although if the infantry sits on the armor and a too powerful landmine is blown up, the majority dies from a compression blow, breaks the vertebrae, etc. In short, if the explosion under the wheel is better on the armor, and if on the side of the road or on a tree or post it is better inside. Need to seek balance.

No "balance" is needed, normal work of sappers is necessary.

What are your specific claims to BTR82A?

[_Ugene_]

I don’t have any, thank God I can’t move on them, the claims of the fighters and they are very simple -

In short, if the explosion under the wheel is better on the armor, and if on the side of the road or on a tree or post it is better inside. Need to find a balance

bulletproof armor and a complete lack of mine protection

just as fighters traveled to BTR-70 in Afghanistan, 30 years later, they drive to Donbass and Syria because the bullet is, of course, a fool, but the mine for the BTR is a grave

[ROSS_51]

Quote: NEOZ

What are your specific claims to BTR82A?

Have a military claim. The concept itself is out of date. A tin can that is sewn from all angles. 30 mm whip, which does not allow accurate fire even in short bursts, and indeed a weak caliber. The NATO people are gradually moving to 40 mm with programmable shells.
In general, I like this approach-APU received 8 BTR-80-old trash and so on. Our received

modern armored personnel carriers BTR-82A

. Not funny yourself?

[spectr]

And also the BTR-82AM, which, according to Internet resources, is a modernized BTR-80. As a result, we overtook the APU only in quantity.

[Amin_vivec]

The cost of the Boomerang is $ 4 million (about 280 million rubles).
The cost of upgrading the BTR-80 to the BTR-82 is 23,5 million rubles.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
thus for $ 4 million you can get:
1) 12 BTR-82A - 4 full motorized rifle platoons (100% new communication, awareness of the battlefield, additional protection, new engine);
2) 1 Boomer + 12 BTR-80 from the reserve ... - the same 4 full motorized rifle platoons ... 92% of which will be rubbish ...

Or is your arithmetic cannibal to the fact that we have a lot of these guys, and $ 4 million is too expensive?

[Amin_vivec]

The cannibals are the ones who ate your brain. When you comment - at least read it.
In the first case, 3 motorized rifle platoons will receive new equipment, or equipment after cap. repair. In the second case, the novelty of the technique will be 5-7%. Are you sure the remaining 93-95% will start at all? What will be the combat capability of three such companies, in which there will be one combat-ready APC? Everyone will climb on your "boomer" both inside and from above, and who did not climb on foot?
Do you guarantee that no one will ride the "Boomer" on armor?

First, do you take your brains to MRI? And then your voice in your head seems to be, and you argue with it. Have I even mentioned Boomerang somewhere?
Why are you here my hectic interest? What is the new technique? what upgrade? If this technique does not hold an explosion under the bottom or does not protect the landing party from a heavy machine gun, this is simply a mastering of the budget. Cheaper Gazelles to buy, the effectiveness will be the same.

[Amin_vivec]

That's just your bottom and could not stand it)))

[strannik1985]

Looking with whom to fight, it’s the militants who bother manually installing improvised land mines, a more or less technically advanced opponent will use anti-bottom mines with a magnetic target sensor, MRAP will not help, we need sappers.

[_Ugene_]

MRAP will not help

Are you serious? don’t you understand the absurdity of such arguments? well, let's develop your idea - the tank is also not a panacea, there are all kinds of ATGMs against it and again there are dead bodies inside, and if a nuclear explosion doesn’t help the concrete bunker either, let's refuse armored vehicles altogether, let the fighters drive in cars, they don’t need armor, is it really not clear that such logic leads to complete absurdity? armored vehicles must meet modern conditions, and if a fighter before leaving thinks that you are a corpse in an explosion under the bottom inside an armored personnel carrier, and you are a corpse in an explosion on the side of the armored car, then what kind of armored vehicle? in the rear it’s the place, MRAP many times increases the probability of survival of fighters, and no one says that it is a panacea

[strannik1985]

Are you serious?

Absolutely, but you misunderstood. MRAP - high central heating, wide windows - embrasures (situational awareness), preferably with the use of civilian vehicle components (operating costs).
It is ideal to have normal BMP / APCs and MRAPs out of state to replace linear machines in a low-intensity conflict.
But sappers will still have to be equipped with expensive instruments such as GPR or a non-linear locator.

[_Ugene_]

I agree, both BMP / BTR and MRAP are needed, but we only have trouble with the Boomerangs, we have been showing them for 5 years in parades, and now they started talking about high export potential, it looks like the MRAP troops will not or will be in MIG-35 quantities

[strannik1985]

Throw it, the author wrote stupidity (unlikely) or just an informational stuffing. While there are no results of state tests (summer 2020) and military operation, nothing can be said. The export potential of the machine has not yet been adopted into service is doubtful.

[_Ugene_]

so it’s not he invented

On April 23, Rosoboronexport announced the start of the promotion of the newest unified combat platform Boomerang to foreign markets. According to the general director of the enterprise, Alexander Mikheev, the probable volume of exports in the foreseeable future is one billion dollars. There is a strong technological and marketing basis for this assessment (high quality and reasonable cost).

if they were going to supply troops, who would offer it for export? here, for example, offer S-500 for export? no, first saturate their air defense, only then export

You can simply put on each car a double set of personnel - a compartment for armor, a compartment for armor. Someone will get there. In addition, in this situation, less valuable equipment is at risk of damage or destruction.

[Fuse angel]

It would be better if "Boomerangs" began to be produced for the army.

[Doccor18]

Instead of "Boomerang" in the army
the latest modernization of "AM" will go.

[carstorm 11]

First you need to finish the test. and then to deliver deliveries.

[tagil]

Detonation of a land mine from a 152-mm projectile under the bottom, even a tank does not save, do you consider "boomerang" a panacea for the infantry?

[210ox]

Of course not a panacea. But there are requirements of the time, and on the descendants of the BTR-60 how much can you ride?

[tagil]

Here you are partly right, but there are a lot of BTR-80 in our troops, and even after adopting the "boomerang" of the BTR-80, the main armored personnel carrier for many more years and its modernization will continue, and 82 this is its modernization.

[210ox]

Yes of course. These machines are many and cheaper to upgrade them. Moreover, the units and assemblies are unified. The new BTR is a completely different car. But I believe that the BTR60-70-80 are already outdated.

[tagil]

Of course they are out of date, but our opponents also have a lot of junk, and after they knock out that they will have to ride the M-113 again. In general, when creating APCs, the concept of their application did not provide for direct participation in combined arms combat, but reduced mainly to the protection and patrolling of settlements and communications, as well as to escorting convoys with cargoes. But for this they are in the divisions of the motorized rifle division, and in this vein, they are still very personal.

Like what, it does not correspond to fashion (a joke).

It (even modernized) will not hold anything in the forehead, starting from 12.7 mm.
Need a complete replacement.
Mobility-mobility, but you need a different technique.

[tagil]

What is an APC intended for, is any APC not only ours? When you read the tactics of their application, it will become clearer to you. A replacement is needed, but only this requires years and years, we are not the USSR, and we won’t do it quickly.

[Boratsagdiev]

Tactics have long since changed, as has life outside the window.
Like the fact that the USSR has long been gone.
You need to look at real things, not remember the past.
In order to "knock out" all this economy, 20-30 mm autocannons and 12.7 machine guns will be enough.
And ATGMs can still be saved.
But what will they do with the enemy in the oncoming (or any other) battle? ...
12.7, 14.4, 30-mm is not enough ... they will be naughty with birds, hiding behind burning bodies?

BTR-90 was not and never will be, the Boomerang was suspended in the air.
Many people didn’t see a 40 mm autocannon in their eyes (and there was excellent ballistics).
"Urapotriotism" is certainly a good thing, but it can come out sideways.

[tagil]

"Urapotriotism" is certainly a good thing, but it can come out sideways.

Not at all cheers. So. Let's start all over again. We do not take conflicts of low intensity, for them we have Tigers and Typhoons, Scorpions, American Strikers and MaxxPro Dash, etc. What kind of war is the United States preparing for and with whom? With us and China, the conflict will be between comparable armies, both in terms of equipment and weapons. So explain to me, where is the place of the striker in the combined arms battle, where the infantry fighting vehicles and tanks ride? The place for armored personnel carriers is not there, so these vehicles will do in the rear what they are intended for, escorting columns, patrolling the area and n.p., checkpoints and of course trips for vodka or whiskey from their side. That is, armored personnel carriers will be in those units where there is wheeled vehicles (because the resource). All. And if the BTR-82 and the striker meet, then the victory will be for our BTR (it all depends on the meeting, of course) 30 mm is 30 mm and others have no chance. "Boomerang" may be a good machine, but too expensive, generally not for a mass army and they will quickly run out if they are released on the battlefield. The Americans created their light brigades in the 2000s for the war with the Papuans, since they did not think that Russia would rise again. So these brigades are in a war with us about nothing.

[Boratsagdiev]

That, to arrange something for the beginning it is necessary to have !.
"30 mm is 30 mm" ... Are you sure it will pierce? and even more so other vehicles (which in terms of protection were almost equal to medium tanks of the Second World War).
ZUBR8 - penetrates up to 28 mm at 60 g. 700 meters (standard no more than 20 mm)
ZUBR11-40-40 + per 1000 meters.
And compare with Natovskie who "sew" from 1.5-2 km more than 40-50 mm.
In the rear, there will be enough ordinary "two-axes", cheaper, and if RPG shmalnut, it will not matter what you are on.
And if there is a conflict with the West, it will no longer be a "war with the Papuans" ...

[tagil]

We will have.

And compare with Natovskie who "sew" from 1.5-2 km more than 40-50 mm.

Let's not take individual vehicles armed with such a caliber, this caliber for BMPs, most NATO armored personnel carriers are armed with conventional machine guns or large-caliber 12,7 mm (BTR-82 and this is enough for the eyes). The striker's armor protection is the standard adopted back in the years of the Cold War and it is standard for the whole of NATO (we do not take hinged crap into account)

The body of the armored personnel carrier is welded from sheets of hardened armored steel grade 160. The reservation also consists of Kevlar and ceramic-composite materials. The armor withstands direct hits of caliber bullets up to 14,5 mm, fragments of bombs and shells.

So it's not so scary. Yes, the BTR-80 is morally obsolete, it needs to be changed, but it’s also not worth dramatizing much. In 2014, according to the authoritative international publication Army Technology, the Russian BTR-82A entered the top ten world cars of this class. And I think that they put him there not by chance, although the classes are different.

[Amin_vivec]

The cost of the Boomerang is $ 4 million (about 280 million rubles).
The cost of upgrading the BTR-80 to the BTR-82 is 23,5 million rubles.
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
thus for $ 4 million you can get
1) 12 BTR-82A - 4 full motorized rifle platoons;
2) 1 Boomer + 12 BTR-80 from the reserve ... - the same 4 full motorized rifle platoons ... 92% of which will be rubbish ...

As practice shows, we have an armored personnel carrier - a plug in all holes. It is used in all hot spots. A tank is already a means of a great war, and an armored personnel carrier is just for small conflicts.
Yes, now a Chinese field-effect binoculars with NVD costs $ 100, what to waste time on and spend money on NVD in an armored personnel carrier? And it will be like in 1941 - for 10 tanks - one radio ...

An armored personnel carrier is an infantry transporter in a war zone. So it should be according to the real level of security. But look at his place in battle order on the BUSV in the offensive or defense. BTR and BMP are located in the same places. And the presence of a good (better KPVT, but in comparison with the analogue of NATO - weaker) automatic guns will not allow the commander to keep it in a safe place. As a result - with its 2A42 / 2A72 BTR-82XXXX will be a priority goal for the enemy, which will not be able to withstand the armament of the enemy’s analogues. And if the Boxer in the trench with 2A72 can be hit with difficulty, then from M113 (armed with M-2) we can hit our armored personnel carrier from any angle to anywhere in the hull.

You still can’t understand that a new war will not require the seizure of foreign territories. And our generals strive to build an infantry line, everyone is preparing for the last war.

Why carry cargo in an armored capsule?

probably because it was for this reason that the ARMOR-TRANSPORTERS were created, which according to their tasks are supposed to be primarily protected by the transport of assault forces and cargo, and only then a wedge with a small-caliber gun or floating amphibian.

perhaps the armored personnel carrier is used as a BMP? ... and even as a tank

Modern armored personnel carriers BTR-82A and modernized BTR-82AM will be delivered to the SV.

And where are the promised Boomerangs?

You, apparently, immediately after the presentation gets a new car, PC, smartphone.
Can you tell me where you throw the "old stuff"?

in today's conflict, an armored personnel carrier is also a mass grave as is an armored personnel carrier. I would like to hang equipment on it to detect missile calculations and their complexes, then she will be able to support someone on the battlefield.

It would be better if "Boomerangs" began to be produced for the army.

The Ministry of Defense is dancing Bollywood, they are like Indians, they give a difficult technical task with a dozen wishes, but then they want the product for free, and if it’s expensive, it’s not necessary. ..and soldiers of conscripts can be stuffed into an old coffin on wheels, their farts will be blown up and not defense ministers
