Bulgaria has found funds to deliver Soviet armored personnel carriers to Ukraine

Ukraine will soon receive a large batch of Soviet armored vehicles, Bulgaria has finally found funds for the delivery of BTR-60PB armored personnel carriers removed from storage. The Bulgarian press reports this.

Bulgaria found money to deliver Soviet-made armored personnel carriers removed from storage; some “unknown Ramstein member country” agreed to finance the shipment of armored vehicles to Ukraine. In general, someone sponsored the delivery, but there is no information about who exactly. Ukrainian resources suggest that this could be Germany, although there are statements about one of the Scandinavian countries. One way or another, armored personnel carriers are beginning to be prepared for delivery to Ukraine.

Bulgaria will finally deliver to Ukraine in the near future the ill-fated 100 old Soviet BTR-60PB armored personnel carriers transferred from storage by the Bulgarian Ministry of Internal Affairs. “An unknown Ramstein participating country” agreed to finance their delivery.

- writes the bmpd blog.

Let us recall that in July 2023, the Bulgarian parliament approved the transfer to Ukraine of about a hundred BTR-60 armored personnel carriers, purchased under socialism for the country’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, or rather, for the internal troops. All equipment manufactured in the 60s and 70s of the last century was not used for its intended purpose after purchase, but was put into storage, where it has remained to this day. Although the transfer of armored vehicles was announced last summer, the shipment itself was postponed several times, Sofia did not have the funds for this, and Kyiv was ready to accept armored personnel carriers only as a gift.

Scrap is being dumped in full swing to Ukraine....

Well, the Outskirts need to live and earn the same way... You won’t last long on deductions from the earnings of Ukrainian prostitutes in Europe... And here they bring you scrap metal themselves... In Ukraine, scrap metal resellers are breaking records for the export of this raw material from the country.. .

In the last photo, apparently, what will they send? In general, it’s high time to start sinking the ships that transport all this. In this case, it is necessary to refer to the Ukrainian saboteurs who rented a yacht in Poland or Germany...

Yes, almost everyone looked to the side. Of the Warsaw Pact countries and the entire Union, only Belarus stood shoulder to shoulder during all these difficult years.

Actually, this “junk” has no kind of armor, but it is armed with a Vladimirov machine gun... We ourselves use the same MTLB and install naval weapons on it.

[Vladimir 290]

Already in the 80s, these armored personnel carriers were terrible old stuff, and they were constantly being “tinkered” with them, and it’s even scary to imagine how to restore them. But MTLB is “different” and the design is more successful.

Here the minusers are a separate herd.
if someone writes how bad everything is in the country, they are importing migrants and officials are fattening them up, they will shower them with positives. Everyone is worried about Russia. Everyone understands that this is a threat to us.
below you write a comment that in a country ruled for 24 years by a certain Putin, everything is going according to plan, this same Putin personally signs (past the State Duma) decrees on the importation of Central Asians, blacks, etc., gives them amnesties after expulsion from the country, officials to their sons in For 15 years, 4 highest orders of neighboring republics have been given and awarded, these same officials are irremovable and the former cronies of this Putin - the Rottenberg brothers, the Sechins, the Potanins, etc.. will throw down minuses..
everyone understands everything, but literally one word-concept and the crowd will turn positives into negatives.
that's it, forget it.
The main thing is that you voiced the problems realistically, naming specifics, and did not cover it up with general phrases.

The article states incorrectly. The armored personnel carriers will not go to Ukraine, but first to Macedonia for modernization and retrofitting, and then only to Ukraine. Who is financing the same is known neither to Germany, but to the USA. Just like the purchase of the T-72 in Qatar, even 150 units.

The author of the article is disingenuous or has no information! For the first time, the project to modernize the BTR-60PB by installing a diesel engine in Bulgaria began to be developed in 1985, but after the start of military reform and army reduction in 1989 - 1990, it was closed BTR-60PB-MD1 - Bulgarian modification, production was mastered at the Terem-Khan Krum machine-building plant in Targovishte (two GAZ-40P engines were replaced by one six-cylinder Cummins ISB 25.30 diesel engine with a power of 250 hp), 8 “Tucha” smoke grenade launchers were installed on the turret. It’s hard to accurately call it scrap after modernization in Macedonia!

[Crimean partisan 1974]

one six-cylinder diesel engine Cummins ISB 25.30

...yeah...with a mileage of no more than 200 thousand km...with a constant load of 10 tons, it doesn’t even do that...let them continue to do this bullshit...it’s their money that’s going to zero

[Tim]

Sorry, did you count the mileage yourself or see it? This is not a truck (truck, tractor-trailer) that runs along public roads, as you write 200 thousand)))), the enemy should not be underestimated; they are not fools there! The equipment is quite suitable and will perform its function.

[Crimean partisan 1974]

There is no need to underestimate the enemy, they are by no means fools!

...what is there to evaluate...look at the history of wars and there will be nothing to evaluate...for any military equipment, maintenance is important...and if there is no material base, then the equipment will stand as a dead weight in the fields...as if it were its own time at the initial stage of the Second World War, all the tanks were staked out because the armored vehicles were mixed... well, something like this

[ZloyCat]

"Maintenance is important for any military equipment."
Well, it’s easier to organize for the BTR60 than for the Bradley. and the GAZ 6 is quite a unit. It’s not a race in Monte Carlo that needs to be done here, but the armor needs to be moved 10-20 km, the task is quite within our capabilities

Two hundred thousand kilometers is a lot for an armored personnel carrier. He has nowhere to go so much. For an internal combustion engine power of 250 hp. with 10 tons of total mass this is nothing. A KAMAZ with a 210 liter internal combustion engine carried 10 tons in the back alone, but the KAMAZ was far from stone-built

Listen, I worked at the storage bases of the Armored Defense Ministry for 1,6 years + served as a senior mechanic at a repair plant for 2 years. The battalion was armed with the BTR 80 KamAZ-7403 engine with a turbocharger! Bulgaria is a small country and has not participated in military conflicts. I very much doubt they transported bell peppers from the fields on armored personnel carriers)))). The armored personnel carrier runs mainly to the training ground during exercises on public roads there and back; exercises with shooting are very rare in our army, not to mention Bulgaria!!!! During the 1st Chechen campaign, armored personnel carriers did not reach the North Caucasus under their own power, only on board IL 76 or by railway transport (trains), at least here!

[Crimean partisan 1974]

Bulgaria is a small country and has not participated in military conflicts. I very much doubt they transported bell peppers from the fields on armored personnel carriers

...well, being a senior mechanic, he should know that BETRs have a transmission, and that the transmission of the 60s is not suitable for the 70s, and even more so for the 80s... and replacing axle seals is a total pain... I’m not even talking about the bearings that fly all over the place when used intensively... I just mentioned what is available, in the Russian Federation everything is available for BETRs... but neither Bulgaria nor Macedonia, nor even less so the pig-nosed region, has this, except from donors... but donors also need to be found somewhere, and for money... there is no money

[ZloyCat]

“and replacing axle seals is a complete mess... I’m not even talking about bearings that fly apart during intensive use.”
and what is the hemorrhoids? It’s a regular oil seal, changing it on a regular bridge is not a problem. and the bearings, do they all fall out at the same time on every batter, or do they still sometimes, no more often than on a Kamaz? you generally understand. What are you trying to talk about?

[Crimean partisan 1974]

ordinary seal,

...maybe, but when you change them from a couple of dozen...count how many there are on the BETR....an entertaining toy leggoo

[ZloyCat]

"...maybe, but when you change a couple of dozen of them...count how many there are on the BETR."
and what, they will all just flow like a stream? add oil and drive, they swell, if anything happens, leaks decrease, and adding oil is no problem. Yes, and changing the seals, not in a hurry, one by one, is not a problem at all.

[Crimean partisan 1974]

Yes, and changing the seals, not in a hurry, one by one, is not a problem at all.

...that's because you don't have practice...you use the services of a service station...and so...it's still a hemorrhagic problem

"...this is because you have no practice...you use the services of a service station...and so...there's still hemorrhoids"
Son, I’ve been driving for 45 years, I’ve changed all kinds of oil seals - you’ve never seen so many of them in your life. no need to talk about hemorrhoids. for you it may be, but for those who know how, it’s not a problem at all

[Crimean partisan 1974]

Son, I’ve been driving for 45 years, I’ve changed all kinds of oil seals - you’ve never seen so many of them in your life.

Dear, open the Internet, enter the number and brand of the Cummins ISB 25.30 engine into a search engine and there you will see catalogs of spare parts, as for spare parts for the transmission, they have enough of this stuff (money like a shag fool), private manufacturers will make you oil seals, gaskets in general( rubber technical products) of any size and configuration!

There are figures for how long a tank, like an armored personnel carrier, or an infantry fighting vehicle, can survive in battle. Well, an armored personnel carrier rides either on a highway or over rough terrain, but what’s the point, a UAV can be found anywhere.

"...there are no such numbers...a tank lives in battle exactly as long as the mind of the tank commander.."

...WHAT DO YOU KNOW, IT IS MEASURED IN ENGINE HOURS...this is also called engine life for the uninitiated...motor life is ENGINE HOURS...sometimes at nominal value, sometimes in afterburner, afterburner eats up engine life tenfold... I hope there is no need to explain this ten times

They overthrew their own president

Last December, he vetoed the transfer of armored personnel carriers, but, as we see, unsuccessfully

According to Radev, the armored vehicles provided to Ukraine are quite applicable for the purpose of protecting the Bulgarian border and providing assistance to the country's population in cases of disasters and accidents, especially in hard-to-reach regions of the country. “Cases when public protection services encounter similar difficulties are occurring more and more often. That is why the existing technical equipment should be strengthened and not weakened,” President Rumen Radev points out in his reasons for vetoing the draft law.

Soviet armored personnel carrier 60 versus T55. I would never have thought about such a “meeting”.

Martens and leopards: Ukraine is building a “German” tank brigade. About 90 infantry fighting vehicles will be produced for main battle tanks. There are increasing signs that the Ukrainian 25th Brigade will be equipped with specially developed weapons systems. Whether the Ukrainians will find enough Western tanks for such a large force remains to be seen.

But even the Oka OTR was supplied to Bulgaria from the USSR - the latest complex at that time, which was no longer supplied even to the NNA of the GDR! And there was no group of Soviet troops in Bulgaria, unlike the GDR, Poland or Hungary. Like, bros, this is our 16th republic. The brothers paid for weapons and military equipment with tomatoes, about a bucket of tomatoes for an air defense system. I’m sure that if they had “Oka” today, they would drive it too. And there is no need to say that this government is like this, but the people are still ours. Alas, everything has changed. But the main thing is that the Bulgarians cannot be blamed for being put in a position by others. If Moscow has turned away, then someone should warm them up or at least promise?

The politics of the brothers has always been ambiguous. South Stream was not allowed to be built, and this is a peaceful project, and Boris’s friendship with Hitler has not been forgotten.

And what without the inscriptions - “this is for our freedom”?

Another betrayal of the “brothers” has become the norm.
