Media: Russian "terminators" would be very useful in Syria

102
The presence of Russian military and Russian military equipment in Syria has become an obvious fact. Besides aviation equipment, reported the presence of weapons of the ground forces, including tanks. Also, according to experts, during the fulfillment of the Syrian mission BMPT Terminator would be very useful. Writes about this Messenger of Mordovia.

Media: Russian "terminators" would be very useful in Syria


After successful trials of the Terminators, decisions were made to adopt them. However, with the arrival of the Serdyukov team in the Defense Ministry, the plans for the purchase of cars have sunk into oblivion. As a result, Kazakhstan became the first country to acquire “Terminators”. After testing them, the military experts of the republic stated that “one BMPT can, in terms of its potential, replace the 2-2,5 BMP or the 3-4 BTR”.



“The Terminator is armed with two 30-mm cannons, a PKTM machine gun, two automatic grenade launchers, guided missiles with various warheads, including a high-explosive and volume-detonating action,” the publication lists the characteristics of the vehicle. “An advanced fire control system with a thermal imaging channel allows you to detect targets day and night, in adverse weather conditions.”



"If we talk about the protection of BMPT, then according to these characteristics, the machine significantly exceeds the Russian main battle tank T-90", - said "Herald".

The BMPT (or, as it is now called, the fire support fighting vehicle) “is capable of effectively fighting the enemy’s manpower and armored vehicles in urban conditions, the desert and the mountains,” and, according to experts, “could be a reliable defense for the Russian units performance of various, including peacekeeping tasks, ”concludes the publication.

        I envy the white envy of the Kazakh Brothers, since they have already adopted BMPT. wink
        If we talk about Syria, then the BMPT would really be very useful, especially the BMPT-1 based on the T-90. Unlike BMPT-2, it has 2 30-mm automatic grenade launchers, and this is a very significant factor for combating enemy infantry + gives the gunner of the module with 2 30-mm cannons to search / fire at targets in side projections and aft fearing that an RPG-7/29 or "Molotov cocktail" / RKG-3 + grenade may fly in the forehead while he is distracted.
        Even considering that the potential enemy in the person of ISIS and other US bastards, there are not so many MBTs. Terminator ATGMs will still find use in the form of pillboxes, bunkers and, again, enemy MBTs, which it will destroy from a safe distance for itself. It would be nice for Russia to conclude a contract for the supply to Syria of a batch of 10 BMPT + BREM vehicles, officially, so that Probable Partners do not blather once again, Yes, in Syria, Russian BMPTs, but these are already Syrian BMPTs, which Syria officially acquired from us and we don't know who is fighting inside these BMPTs, they are "Syrian". laughing A good test by the real war, where the front is a mushy state and a mixed DB theater from the desert to the city ruins (for which the BMPT was actually created), would be welcome. soldier

          Most likely in this form, BMPT will not be adopted. The new BMPT will be based on Almaty and have a caliber of 57 mm. But there will be two guns or one - a riddle) But in any case, the machine will be more powerful than the current BMPT. Although it would not hurt to buy the old before adopting the new one.

        Syria is a great opportunity to test Russian weapons systems in a combat situation. And Syria would not hurt to accept the CSTO. In general, the CSTO is an excellent vaccine against NATO bombing. If the country is protected, Russia will be able to deploy as much of the military contingent as needed.

      After the tank is fired, the area of ​​the projectile hit and the location of the tank is enveloped in a dense cloud of dust and smoke. On the one hand, this masks the vehicle from RPGs and ATGMs, but at the same time does not allow searching for targets. "Terminator", with a thermal imaging sight, could effectively work in tandem with a tank in a similar situation, at the same time covering it when entering a position and retreating after completing a task.

        In my opinion, the situation with Libya was completely different.

    I don’t know about the device in Kazakhstan, but there is NO serial production.
    The device may not even be very bad, but what does Syria have to do with it! For the sake of the humanitarian supply of the Terminator to Syria, to organize its mass production - BRED. It’s easier to remove and send a couple of tanks from the Soviet stocks of Soviet stocks to the Syrians!

      And what is the article "lies"? There is no understanding in the application of the "device", so you cannot read the old charters and methods forever, you need to develop something new, life does not stand still. There was a time when the BMP was created for the first time in the world, and it was created in the USSR. For her, by and large, not everything was the same as that of the armored personnel carriers used earlier in the war. BMPT began to develop back in the USSR, taking into account the combat experience of various conflicts, including our war in Afghanistan. If the BMP can be considered a universal vehicle that combines both the ability to transport infantry and fire support, then the BMPT focuses on fire support with specialized weapons, which the tank does not have. In order for the concept of using BMPT to appear, one must understand that this is not an opposition to BMP, but its addition. Any heaviest infantry fighting vehicle (including the new T-15) will be weaker than the BMPT in terms of the fire component, when, after dismounting, the infantry will begin to perform the functions of its support. Ideally, the BMPT should be supplemented by a heavy armored personnel carrier, where the BMPT, without risking unhurried infantry, performs fire functions, and the heavy armored personnel carrier, without going into the first line and having enhanced protection, performs only transport functions on the battlefield. Heavy armored personnel carrier and BMPT, this is a BMP divided by functions. The BMP itself is ideal precisely as a universal vehicle (BMP-3), especially for such mobile troops as the marines (BMP-3F, if it reaches our marines) and as a BMD (BMD-4M) for the Airborne Forces. A heavy infantry fighting vehicle, if it is needed at all, is perhaps only as an anti-guerrilla combat vehicle in police, anti-terrorist operations, but hardly in a big war with a first-class army. And it may be easier "to remove a couple of hundred tanks from the Household House of Soviet stocks and send them to the Syrians!" With "Household of Soviet reserves", it is better to convert into BMPT, it will be much more effective. It is necessary, indeed, to test the BMPT in Syria, is it really difficult to make (or alter from tanks) a dozen vehicles, and find out the opinions of the military.

        Why? For example, on the long-developed BMP-3 100 mm 2A70, according to the bunker / bunker, manpower, field fortifications, it will work much better than 30 mm 2A72 BMPT, even if there are two barrels instead of one.

          Why? For example, on a long-mastered BMP-3 100 mm 2A70
          Because, dear Vladimir, that "treshka" does not have tank armor, and on BMPT protection even surpasses tank armor, this time. Second, the fact that the BMPT is now equipped with a pair of 30 mm cannons does not mean that various versions of the BMPT cannot have other combat modules, including the Bakhchu. Finally, you cannot add anything without subtracting anything, this is not pumping tanks in network games. Transporting infantry on the battlefield is an important transport function, fire support for infantry is also a serious function. If a "fix idea" has arisen, to create a "bomb shelter" on caterpillars (or wheels), with biosrach, air conditioning, wide rear doors and other delights, so that, preferably, the infantry does not crawl out of the armor to the war, this is utopia. So we will get the newly-minted "Mouse", which will be destroyed anyway, blown up on a more powerful land mine, from which the infantry will still have to dismount, get out to war. I have heard the opinion of a mechanic driver with a BMP-2, who believed that maneuverability and maneuverability are much more important than "thick-skinned" sluggishness (the man was in real battles). What did we get in the coveted T-15 Armata? The first thing that catches your eye is the size, "Bradley", "Warrior" and "Marder" rest here. The car does not float, due to the large weight, there will be increased fuel consumption (the power reserve will decrease) and the engine life will be lower. The base was declared a "platform" without waiting for the test results and its recognition as successful and reliable, which is fundamental for the creation of families of combat vehicles on this base. If the T-95 could be considered a reinforcement tank, a super tank ("Russian Tiger" and "Abrams Kaput"), then its high price justified it, one hit of a 152 mm projectile from a long range was guaranteed to destroy all known tanks. Nobody was going to make the T-95 a "platform" like the T-14. Well, make a cargo "boot" or a pickup truck on the basis of Lexus, what is a reasonable "platform"? Now they are promoting this idea as ingenious, as if earlier on the basis of the T-72 various combat vehicles were not created, from bridgelayers to self-propelled guns, TOS and the same BMPT. Stocks of old tanks could be used for such alterations, and not on an expensive base to make repair and recovery vehicles and so on, better focusing on the production of the T-14 tanks themselves. I have already said, I repeat, there is an excellent universal BMP-3 (and BMD-4M), for a large, maneuverable war, an BMPT was created on the basis of a tank, for work in the first line, which would not be prevented by a "partner", a heavy armored personnel carrier. Having lost the versatility of the BMP, they would receive highly effective specialized combat vehicles in addition to tanks, and on their basis, where the BMPT would perform combat functions, and the heavy armored personnel carrier would be transport. If BMPTs can be converted from old tanks, then a heavy armored personnel carrier can be created in the same way (the Israeli "Akhzarit" was based on captured T-54 / T-55). Well, and lastly, the T-15 is armed no stronger than the BMP-2 in the Berezhok version.

            Because, dear Vladimir, that "treshka" does not have tank armor, and on BMPT protection even surpasses tank armor, this time.

            I am happy for the crew, but the armament is protected at the level of a conventional BMP.
            Second, the fact that the BMPT is now equipped with a pair of 30 mm cannons does not mean that various versions of the BMPT cannot have other combat modules, including the Bakhchu.

            Those. firepower willat the BMP-3/4 level.
            Infantry transportation on the battlefield is an important transport function, infantry fire support is also a serious function

            BMPT infantry does not replace, i.e. when attacking a prepared defense, we come to the classic ligament-tank + infantry + other means, one of which will be BMPT. And what is the point of fencing a separate car duplicating the usual BMP in the tasks solved by the usual outfit of forces? Is the budget bottomless? Are the railway capacity endless or the capabilities of subunits and supply units?

              Nothing can replace infantry, even robots, but BMPT can significantly facilitate both the solution of combat missions by infantry and tanks. They just start to "fence" with a heavy infantry fighting vehicle, and not with an infantry fighting vehicle. The budget is not bottomless, right, but the BMPT can be converted from stocks of old tanks, and this is already a reason, as well as the fact that even a new BMPT on the T-90 chassis will be cheaper than the T-15.

                      What for? What tasks cannot tanks with support means solve, what for this must be entered into the BMPT TB?
                      By the beginning of the 80's, the experience of combat training of troops, the results of studies showed that a breakthrough of prepared enemy defenses according to the traditional scheme using tanks and infantry fighting vehicles becomes problematic, due to the massive saturation of the defending side with manual anti-tank weapons. In addition, it is worth recalling the experience of using tanks in Afghanistan and Grozny. When modern MBTs became virtually defenseless against individual grenade launchers hiding in the folds of the terrain and houses. Namely, under the influence of this experience, the concept of BMPT was developed. The fact is that to combat such threats, the armament of the tank is excessive and ineffective due to insufficient rate of fire. Weapons, to fight the enemy’s tank-dangerous manpower, need not be powerful, but must be quick-fire and be able to quickly reorient from one target to another. In addition, the combat vehicle itself, should have been unlike, for example, BMP, in general, in terms of armament that meets the above requirements, armored at the level of MBT. Since avoiding fire contact with the enemy, it still does not work out, and booking an infantry fighting vehicle and armored personnel carrier is categorically insufficient to withstand, not only falling from grenade launchers, but even from large-caliber small arms.
                      So the idea of ​​BMPT was born. In fact, a tank with small-caliber weapons.
                      During the BMPT demonstration at the exhibition in Nizhny Tagil, representatives of the Israeli delegation immediately became interested in it. And they even spoke out in terms of the immediate purchase of a batch of BMPTs to support the Israeli Merkava tanks, which are hardly adapted for operations in urban conditions, participating in the cleansing of Palestinian settlements. True, at the last moment the Israelis changed their minds - they decided that they themselves could develop their own analogue of BMPT. In addition to the Israelis, the military from Malaysia also showed interest in purchasing BMPTs. So, it is possible that not the Russian military will be the first to receive the BMPT.
                      In conclusion, I want to say that, in my opinion, not the adoption of BMPT for the armament of the Russian army lies far from the TTX plane of this system. The sources of why BMPT is not accepted into service should be sought in corruption pervading everything and everyone. Apparently, take BMPT into service, those responsible for this business will not receive a sufficient rollback for them. So they are clamoring for this project, quite clearly hinting to the representatives of the Uralvagonzavod that they need to do so that their brainchild receives funding from the Russian defense department.
                      By the way, the situation with BMPT reminds me very much of the situation with armored personnel carriers on the eve of the war. Then, also, the military did not find application for a new technique. For which, then, our soldiers paid millions of their lives.

                      On my own behalf, I will only say that the willing person seeks opportunities, and the unwilling person seeks reasons. It is not scary to announce the transition to new "platforms", for all the dampness of the projects and the ambiguity of the concept of the transition, but "to introduce BMPT into the TB" puts you into a stupor ...

Earlier I expressed my complex attitude to the use of the expensive T-14 base for vehicles other than a tank.

But, thanks for the fact that even so the T-95 was "formatted" in the T-14, the idea itself was preserved. I also really hope that the T-14 will be equipped with a 152 mm gun (on the T-95, in addition to the 152 mm 2A83 cannon, there was also a 30 mm 2A42 automatic cannon, with a limited sector of individual guidance for secondary targets, saving 152 mm shots), which is T-14 has not yet been observed.

    BMPT in terms of its characteristics should also support infantry while storming the fortified positions of terrorists. BMPT is well protected from portable anti-tank weapons, which will not allow it to be destroyed from a hidden position. With its fire, it will be able to effectively suppress firing points and ensure the advance of infantry. BMPTs seemed to have thermobaric warheads of missiles, which means they can destroy fortified points in houses.

Ptur also could be used little when, and getting into a rocket is fraught with a loss of equipment. so if you already supply highly protected equipment, a simplified version without these bells and whistles that are not needed there. As you know, we don’t have such serial equipment. even BMPT is not a serial equipment, its cost will be like a tank or even higher. training, development of a usage strategy, repair, etc. also does not add pls.

    rebels have very few armored vehicles. the main projectile will be high-explosive
