Not every bird will fly to the middle of the Dnieper, especially if you start sailing directly from the Pacific Fleet from the Primorsky Territory. But seriously, the English Channel was even crossed in the water, in the narrowest place (32 km). So in good weather, I think I can do it in four hours

Can. On a new one. In the calm. Accompanied by rescuers. And in the troops in 2-3 years there will be leaks, so it is better to use it for its intended purpose. The car is good, the cannon is 100mm and can shoot ATGMs. Plus twin 30mm. No other infantry fighting vehicles have such firepower. Although the Chinese seem to have bought this combat module from us. The case, as I remember, is made of aluminum alloy. Are the Marines not going to metal?

You can't hesitate! We urgently need to swim! Until they started flowing!

Not only the Chinese and not only the module. For example, an armored personnel carrier.

Although the Chinese seem to have bought this combat module from us.

And they installed it on their ZBD-04 and ZBD-08 infantry fighting vehicles.

The news is good, but we should have heard it 10-15 years ago.

this is how a "nine" was released at a VAZ, and there should already be a "fourteenth". for those years, quite a bit ...

The BMP-3F is just an upgrade of the BMP-3, a vehicle for the ground forces with the ability to swim.
Our marines have long been in need of specialized equipment. She needs an analogue of the Chinese ZBD-05.
