The decision to purchase BMPT "Terminator-2" will be made based on the results of tests

The final decision on the serial production of support combat vehicles tanks (BMPT) "Terminator 2" will be adopted following the test program. Reported by "News" with reference to the Ministry of Defense.

As the newspaper writes, testing BMPT takes almost a year. Based on the results of the tests, the Ministry of Defense will make the final decision on the introduction into service and the serial purchase of combat vehicles. Currently, the first stage of tests has been completed, associated with a general acquaintance with the BMPT, the study of the controls and weapon systems of the combat vehicle.



The second stage of tests will be devoted to the use of BMPTs in combat conditions. The test program will include a comprehensive run-in, including shooting in different weather and temperature in winter and summer. Terminators will be tested in conjunction with both tanks and infantry.

When these machines were developed, there was no complete understanding of how they would operate on the battlefield. Now the military will have to study this technique not only technically, but also tactically.

- said military expert Viktor Murakhovsky.

It is noted that until 2017 the fate of the Terminator BMPT was uncertain, but the tests carried out in Syria made it possible to make a decision on the production of a batch of these combat vehicles for trial operation. At the same time, other countries expressed interest in BMPT. In 2020, Algeria received a batch of BMPTs, which ordered about 300 Terminators.

All eight Terminator BMPTs, which arrived at the end of November 2020 in the 90th Panzer Division stationed in the Chelyabinsk Region, will take part in testing.

          How do you see its use?
          Just wondering. Rave screams are great, but as you personally see its use.
          A tank platoon of 3 vehicles, in an offensive it operates on a front of 300-500 meters, a company advances to a front up to one and a half km (see Combat Regulations for the preparation and conduct of combined arms combat. Part 2: or part 3: PLATFORM, Squad, TANK, about units and formations we will not talk)
          Where and how do you see the BMPT armored group structure?

            Read carefully the BUSV that you trump. The front of the platoon's offensive is up to 300m, the front of the company's offensive is 1000m. And the 500 and 1500 you mentioned are a platoon and a company in defense.
            So the offensive of the tank platoon. On one side, between the tank going in the center, there is usually an infantry fighting vehicle of the attached mso, but on the other side there is a very place for the BMPT. Total from right to left along the front: tank, BMPT, tank, BMP, tank. It is obvious. Well, this is classic. It's about the same in defense.

              It is desirable to have BMPT in tank units. A company in TB, or a platoon in TR. For me, it's better to have one BMPT (or two - this is in the TB MSP) in a tank platoon. In the latter version, new subdivisions do not appear at all (they do not increase structurally, but are supplemented. One way or another, they work together anyway, even if they polish the interaction (at the platoon level, that's the thing).

                I completely agree. Tank battalions of motorized rifle brigades of a platoon of 4 tanks. So it is quite logical to include the 4th BMPT vehicle in the tank platoons of tank brigades and regiments. The only thing is that it is easier to organize combat training as part of a unit of the same type. But in the case of BMPT, this will only apply to performing single shooting exercises. Again, this can be solved by one run of the 3rd BMPT company. Although here you may have to re-cover the target environment.

                  BMPT company as part of a tank battalion. For ease of maintenance, combat training and logistics.
                  Combat use is adaptive, depending on the combat mission - distributed or concentrated. The battle conditions in the field, on rough terrain, in urban areas or during the assault on capital positions are different and require an individual approach and solutions.

                    For ease of maintenance, BMPT on the T-72 platform, i.e. the technical side does not cause complications.
                    Combat training should take place together with tankers, they should act together.
                    The rest is very nice words.
                    All actions, the composition of any units, assault groups are described in the combat manual and act according to the BU, and not as God puts it on your soul.

                      BMPT has yet to be written into the statutes. And the combat vehicles of the BMPT company can be painted according to the tank units of the battalion, for example, the 1st platoon of the BMPT is assigned to the 1st tank company of the battalion. Based on the assumption that the battalion has 3 tank companies and one BMPT company.
                      The BMPT has not only a chassis, but also an extensive armament complex that is not identical to the tank one. Optics, electronics, hydraulics, thermal imagers, etc., are different from the tank. The training of recruits, the transfer of combat experience and operational skills, speak of the desirability of grouping such vehicles into their own units (as part of tank units), and not smearing one per tank platoon.
                      But they need to train together, to work out interaction in battle.

              BU this is not what I am trumping, it is a regulation it is a document according to which the troops live, fight, supply, organize a march.
              You seem to be based on war films. Tank and tank landing in one compartment. This was when the infantry did not have armored vehicles. The BTR appeared, the charter changed, the BMP appeared, the charter changed.
              The offensive is a standard formation of a tank and 50 meters behind a platoon of a m / st on an infantry fighting vehicle. Upon reaching the trenches for 50 - 100 meters, the infantry parachute and, with a throw, firing from small arms reaches the enemy trenches, throwing grenades at him. Something like this is written in the BU.
              Those. in our case, the tank is behind 3 BMP. Where is the place for the BMPT?
              In defense, tanks are pulled back and maneuverable armored groups are created from tank subunits, which "plug" the enemy's breakthrough.
              By the way, BMPs are also retracted back For them, caponiers come off up to 50 meters from the trench that occupies the compartment.
              A platoon in defense can be assigned a tank. Not even a platoon is a tank, but a tank platoon is attached to a m / line, which is a fire reserve and is located 100 - 300 m from the forward trenches.
              Well, where do you think is the place for BMPT?
              According to your doctrine, the composition of the tank platoon, you see 3 tanks and 3 BMPTs. Isn't it too curly. Apparently, you have no idea how to control vehicles with various weapons in battle.
              I'll add more. The BMP-3 is much better armed than the BMPT. Instead of one 30mm cannon, it has a 100mm cannon. The same number of ATGMs and three machine guns.

                The "Terminator" BMPT tank support combat vehicle is a combat vehicle designed to operate in battle formations of tanks and to combat infantry, lightly armored vehicles, anti-tank weapons and helicopters that pose a threat to tanks on the battlefield.

                  Infantry, lightly armored vehicles and anti-tank weapons can quite successfully hit our tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and infantry. How will BMPT fight helicopters? Cannons, with a range of air targets up to 2500 m? Or an ATGM with a range of 6-8 km? When the same old Hellfire crossed the range of 10 km long ago. This I mean that BMPT in the form in which they are trying to shove it to us is not needed from the word "absolutely".

                    15 February 2021 14: 01
                    Well, helicopters are not armed with Hellfires alone. And the battlefield is not a flat billiard table 10 km long. We have to come closer and closer. By the way, when we have more long-range ATGMs, nothing prevents them from being installed on BMPTs during modernization.
                    Tanks primarily fight tanks and other armored vehicles. BMP will of course fight infantry and infantry fire weapons. But! She is lightly armored and it will be difficult for her to get to the line of dismounting. A heavier armored BMPT has a much better chance. Well, the firepower of the BMPT is several times superior to the BMP-2 and surpasses the BMP-3. So an additional firepower that will clean up trenches or an attacking enemy in battle formation can only be welcomed! It is not instead of some other means of fire. And in addition.

                      15 February 2021 14: 59
                      So, in my opinion, we do not need BMPTs, but normal heavy infantry fighting vehicles or armored personnel carriers (such as T-15 or Namer), which can carry 8-10 people in the landing. The tanks and their own have a lot of firepower, and no one can cope with the cleaning of trenches and the like better than the infantry. Self-propelled mortars with a firing range of 10-12 km are also needed. And helicopters must be fought by specialized anti-aircraft guns and other air forces. Each of these will do its job better than BMPT.
                      An attempt to combine everything in one machine looks very much like the pre-war Tukhachevism with universal guns. How it ended is known.
                      BMPT, as an engineering creation, is certainly good and interesting. But this is a very specific car, which is also 20-25 years late. Now it is not needed in our army and spending money on it is a mistake.

                        The point is that heavy infantry fighting vehicles cannot swim. And with the abundance of rivers in most of our theaters, we need to have a fairly large number of amphibious vehicles. So heavy infantry fighting vehicles cannot completely replace floating ones.
                        You understand that the possibility of fighting air targets is also indicated in the combat capabilities of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, but this does not mean that they will fight them at all. They just have such an opportunity in certain situations. So it is with BMPT. The means of air attack will be fought by the means of military air defense, not the Terminators. I repeat that with modern means of destruction, a significant part of the BMP in the place with the landing party inside will not reach the line of transition to the attack. Sadly, it is a fact. Therefore, an additional trench cleaner in a battle formation will not be superfluous. And it will require additional weapons from the enemy.
                        In addition, our formations and units have an orientation towards a certain theater of military operations and an operational direction. And turn, in certain directions there will be units equipped with heavy infantry fighting vehicles and tanks. And they are unlikely to have BMPTs. But in those units and formations where enhanced fire support will be needed not only for tanks, but also for infantry, BMOT / BMPT can be very useful. In the mountains, BMOT / BMPT can generally replace a tank. Since the tank often lacks the angle of the gun.
                        And there was also an amazing fact in my service. Two tank regiments of our division had no infantry at all !!! Can you imagine? Historical fact. That's where BMPTs come in handy!
                        And I think that the military leadership will figure out which units, in what quantities and for what tasks our army needs BMPTs and whether they are needed at all.

                        Nobody talks about the complete replacement of amphibious infantry fighting vehicles with heavy ones, but at least in tank regiments (brigades) it is necessary. The possibility of combating air targets is also in the description of the AK, I agree, but it is in the case of the BMPT that this very conditional possibility is constantly emphasized as if the BMPT is almost a replacement for the 2S6.
                        The next, how the machine, with visibility, approximately, of the tank, will clean the trenches - I personally do not understand and the effectiveness of this "cleaning" seems extremely low.
                        In order for the BMP with the landing force to reach the line of transition to the attack, there is such a long-known thing as fire preparation for an attack, where the main fiddle is played by artillery and during which the enemy's fire resources must be knocked out to the maximum.
                        I agree with the BMOT completely, the car is necessary and useful.

At what distance from the enemy are the lines of deployment in battalion, company and then platoon columns located? And the line of interception to attack? I don't mention enemy tactical, army aviation and UAVs. Have you at least once in your life carried out tactical calculations on the possibility of completing the task and the balance of forces and means for carrying out an offensive at least on the enemy's battalion tactical group? Did you calculate the coefficient of losses before reaching the line of transition to the attack based on the means of destruction available to the enemy? Did you consider the coefficient of density of fire along the front edge of the enemy, which must be created at least to suppress his main fire assets? What is the maximum allowable percentage of our losses that allows us to continue the task at hand? What percentage of the remaining unaffected firepower provides the enemy with the stability of the defense?

Okay, I will not pay attention to your clearly demagogic methods and attempts to portray a teacher. In operational calculations, an additional pistol is a plus, obviously. How many years have they been trying to push this car into the troops? ten? 10? Its armament complex is already outdated. Protection against 15A2 has long been a standard requirement for light armored vehicles among our least likely allies. Moreover, today there is in the hardware really ideal, in my opinion, BMPT - T-42, the armament of which is better and much more promising. Previously, the "Terminator" seemed to me a very interesting and necessary car, but over time, my opinion has completely changed. If you can calmly explain why we need her the way she is, and where she should be in OSHU, I will be grateful.

                        The whole problem of the long-suffering "Terminator" when searching for his place in battle formations is that she was simply incorrectly named / classified.
                        Change the BMPT abbreviation to "Assault Infantry Support Vehicle" (SHMPP), and everything immediately falls into place. Its place is in front of the attacking infantry, suppressing firing points and manpower through the parapet and behind cover. Throw VOGs into the enemy's trenches, drive into the trenches themselves and arrange "rock-and-roll" there, provide fire support for the infantry in urban areas and mountainous terrain, thanks to the large elevation angle of the guns and ... the protection of tank columns on the march.
                        When attacking strongly fortified positions, the infantry must dismount to the zone of destruction of their carriers (lightly armored infantry fighting vehicles) and further advance under the cover of armor of tanks and BMPT / ShMPP. Before the line of destruction of RPG tanks, the tanks must stop and fire from this line, providing fire cover and defeat the identified targets, and the infantry enters the position under cover and together with BMPT / ShMPP, because the protection of the "Terminator" is in no way inferior to MBT ( and they say that it is somewhat superior).
                        When, according to the experience of the war in Afghanistan, the TTZ was drawn up, it was stipulated that a vehicle with tank protection and small-caliber artillery was needed ... But it was named incorrectly. Because of this, the misunderstanding of its place in the battle formations of tank units ... after all, by name, this is a vehicle for their support.
                        So:
                        STORM SUPPORT VEHICLE.
                        And everything immediately falls into place.

                        And to defeat enemy infantry fighting vehicles with protection from 30 mm. The Terminator has ATGMs. Tea their crew also knows about the security of their targets.

                        And the chassis from the T-72 storage bases, significantly reduce the cost of production of such machines. And they provide their unification on the way.

              If there is a tank, Bradley will show whether the nose is in a row. Either a tank or, more likely, a pair of ATGM crews with a firing range exceeding the firing range of BMPT guns will be opposed.
              Chesnslovo somehow childishly all this looks, but Bradley is one tooth for him. By the way, Bradley has something to snap back.

                In modern realities, it will be a kamikaze drone or ATGM from a closed position (from the same Bradley). There is no point in entering the direct fire area.

                It is necessary to put an optoelectronic system and radar on the BMPT against air targets. Then it becomes really useful. Something like American IM-SHORAD

              Then maybe like this - one MBT + two BMPTs - MBTs in the middle and a little ahead, BMPTs on the sides and a little behind ... In order not to block the MBT firing sector, and BMPTs could block the sector with fire in front of the tank and on the sides of it. And the UAV from above for a view from above ... soldier

          If the car does not have a system for detecting optical sights, then this whole terminator is just a heavy and expensive cart. The main task of this vehicle is to identify and engage tank-hazardous targets that are invisible to tank systems. I think replacing two 30-to-one 57mm cannons would make the car more interesting. It would (AU-220) easily hit the enemy on the flat roof of a multi-storey building, even through a couple of upper floors.

                No, not interesting.

                Just short:
                1. In N. Tagil it is still called FRAME.
                Why BMPT? The name is catchy, intriguing. We did it right.
                2. In the troops, probably there were more than you, plus 5 business trips to the Caucasus.
                Command staff.
                He worked out the Order in the following priorities:
                A. Maximum safety of soldiers' lives,
                B. Execution of the Order.
                If, on the contrary, they won't follow you. No options.
                I didn’t come up with this - the advice of men from Afgan.
                3. The grenade launcher, indeed, is not fucking visible in the sight. Not in any. Most often, the infantryman is the first to discover him, he also calms him down, or points at him for destruction.
                4. I am a supporter of the use of tanks in the city. The fire group as part of the Assault. I built a Christmas tree.
                5. I am sure that the Frame can save a lot of lives of soldiers when performing BZ, but it does not replace BMP, and even more so "two platoons of fighters".
                .......
                What "magic" sights for BMPT are you talking about that detect optics?
                I am not making jokes, I really wonder if I have forgotten.

                      That's the problem. In armor, whatever the optics, one feature is disgusting visibility. So the commander sits on the armor in the hope of "perhaps the first by." I remember in the early 80s, back at the school, they showed us a training film, how the states calculated the combat effectiveness of the Cobra against tanks using laser imitators of a shot. If something similar was used in Chebarkul (and we also have this), then it would be very interesting to look at the final document based on the results of testing units at BMPT.

              The level of protection and firepower of the new infantry fighting vehicle in comparison with the original "Terminator" remained at about the same level. Perhaps, the rejection of automatic grenade launchers can badly affect the fighting qualities. However, this decision was made in connection with the simplification of design and production. Probably, the absence of two grenade launchers will not be able to alienate potential customers. It is worth recalling that in numerous discussions of the BMPT vehicle, doubts were often expressed about the advisability of installing two automatic grenade launchers, which should be controlled by individual crew members. Complaints from specialists and people interested in military equipment related to both the quantitative aspects of the crew and the combat effectiveness of grenade launchers with limited aiming angles.

            And with all this attitude towards blacks, the Wehrmacht army still had military units in which blacks served. Corps F was such a unit. It included not only blacks from Sudan and Senegal, but also Arabs, Indians, Persians. They fought for Hitler's Germany. Most often, these units fought in the deserts of Africa.

            These people sided with the Nazis because the Germans fought against the British. Corps F in 1942 was transferred to Russia. This was stunned not only by the Soviet soldiers, but also by the Germans themselves. The African unit was commanded by German officers who knew several languages. This corps fought near Astrakhan and near Rostov-on-Don. There were about 6 thousand soldiers in it. The Germans believed that as soon as they succeeded in seizing Muslim lands in the USSR, many residents would go over to their side. Corps F fought alongside two Cossack regiments of the Wehrmacht.

                I in Egypt talked with Arab youth, they have tattoos with a swastika, I asked - "what is it for"? They say the grandfathers fought with the British.

              Greetings RUSS. I read about him. A group hodgepodge, under the command of General from Aviation Felmi. According to Hitler's idea, after the conquest of the Caucasus, he was supposed to march victoriously across Iran and Iraq to Basra. In principle, he was not badly equipped with weapons, but fell under the pressure of our In addition to the Cossack regiments, the so-called eastern legions were also noted there, and not only in the Caucasus, but also at Stalingrad ... A lot of these traitors after the Victory, having delayed a dozen, lived quietly until old age, and after the disaster they also shook the Germans' pension .Everyone says that Stalin was a tyrant and a murderer, somehow, in my opinion, he did not work much.

    It took too long to get to the army.
    The concept itself is not bad, but the needs have changed.
    A pair of 30 mm in its pure form is not enough, 57 mm + 30 mm begs
    In fact, an open weapon platform is not good.
    There is no way to install at least dynamic protection on it.

    As it seems to me, they won't. For machines appeared. which cover this niche.
    Yes, for its time, the machine was super-duper. But now it’s not the same.
    Alternatively, they will produce it on the market in other countries.

    Wow, what a controversy ensued ... what I like about VO, when the opinions of the experienced clash.
    Five kopecks to your rubles from me, gentlemen officers.
    I understand perfectly well that regulations are written in blood. Do you remember the 08.08 war? Are both Chechens? And remind me when the military regulations were changed in the Second World War and in this connection. And the Syrian theater of operations? Isn't it time to change the BU, or at least make additions in accordance with the realities of our days? Working in the field is one thing, working in the mountains or in the city is another ...

      Believe me, combat regulations are constantly changing. And how quickly they changed during the time of the Makarov General Staff, after the Serdyukov breakdown of the Armed Forces. They did not have time to study. You see, there are different sections and chapters in the Combat Manuals. For example the offensive section. And it started: Offensive in the absence of contact with the enemy, offensive from direct contact with the enemy, offensive in special conditions, offensive in the city, etc. And how many manuals on the conduct of hostilities come out based on modern experience. Including on the conduct of hostilities in an internal armed conflict. And to combat irregular formations. So the documents regulating the procedure for conducting hostilities are not age-old tablets for all times, but very flexible documents. And the number of experimental exercises in the troops has increased significantly recently.
