695 object

On the web resource gspo.ru, the participant under the nickname Andrey1976 posted interesting photographs of an experimental sample of the “695 Object” developed by the Kurgan OJSC “Special Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering” (SKBM). This machine was developed in 1990-ies as a "unified chassis" (including for an infantry fighting vehicle), representing a reworking of the design of the BMP-3 with a change in the layout and use of the UTD-32KF diesel engine and the new transmission . The machine has a stern placement of the engine compartment. This prototype of the “Object 695” was built in the SKBM on the basis of a rework of the BMP-3 chassis around the year 1999. As a result, the topic was not developed, being a kind of "side branch" in relation to the work carried out by the SKBM on the promising BMP in the Kurganets ROC.

After all, the Kurgan is the wheelbase for BTR, and here it is caterpillar, the onboard dynamic protection is clearly visible, there is only one hatch for the crew in the stern (if it is at all), maybe the next development of a light armored tank support vehicle?

When Andrey1976 is released from the FSB, we can ask him.

They give a lot for this, so when it comes out, then he himself will not remember

Boomerang is a wheelbase! Kurgan is caterpillar!

The hatch for the crew in the stern with something Israeli Ahzarit recalled

[black_eagle]

Yes, I’ve mistaken it for the base account, but anyway, it’s clearly not pulling on a heavy BMP

Shurik, that you are advertising everything. Ahzarit, are you a Jew ??? Object 695 rather reminded our BTR-T. based on the T-55 .. And the landing of fighters over the MTO.

I think this is the MTO open hatch.

The one that is open, most likely it is ... take a look ... there are nearby
one more .... closed, in the second photo it is visible.

Naturally, an MTO engine similar to VMP-Z. And landing soldiers in an armored capsule in BMP 3 above the MTO. Just why is the universal chassis an MTO in the stern? Rather, the GM GM 123 MTO in the bow would have a stern inlet or MT-SM tag with MTO in the nose . Adopted in November 1992 .. Weight 30 tons, load capacity 12 tons Than not ready BMP-T .. Hang DZ and in battle. Ready-made universal chassis.

It seems to me a new BMP project. The spent module "Bakhcha" will be the tower. Behind the door (not the hatch) of the troop compartment. In my opinion, the remote control does not hang yet, but additional booking blocks are hanging. Perhaps they will change the combat module a little, but hardly. Unification has not been canceled for new systems, although the reservation can be thrown). If you dance from the date of the photos, the project is old and "waste steam". Most likely there is something more serious.

Soon we will release a new BMP gasp comrades!

I haven’t seen anything new!

Everything is new, well forgotten old. Poles on the basis of our GS-MT-S created in 1999 their BMP BWP-200 .. MTO in the bow aft entrance

TIME WILL TELL.

What the article is about, I do not understand! Or it's like a DIY kit. The title is there, the rest of the readers will add yourself.
