BMP-2M Extra Armor

I found a youtube video of vehicles passing trough like a parade of some sort, and I notice a BMP-2M with extra armor on the front and sides. Maybe its the same extra armor on the 2S38, Im not gonna set my expectations high

But hey, if its actually useful and added, it might be great for survivable mod and ngl it looks badass with it

I don’t think that plywood boards would make much of a difference in protection…

It’s not the first time that this modular armor appeared.

Part of the improvement for the BMP-2 as BMP-2M, probably to solve problems against heavy machine guns and light auto cannons and improve amphibious capacity.

What this???

Recovery vehicle? Looks like БРЭМ-1 with extra ERA

Yeah, I thought so too. Do you understand Russian by any chance?

Yes, native speaker

Ok, I came across this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoNCqqj_2uY&ab_channel=АртёмBuster

And I was wondering if you knew what each group of soldiers were and what part of the Russian Armed Forces they represented?

Not really, seeing what russians use in their “ERA” blocks…

Future Груз 200…

Ah yes, the one photograph from 2022 from the Ukrainians, very reliable source!

Cant tell for sure, plus it still just a rehearsal in Khabarovsk

Oh, thanks anyway. Do you know what the Russian text on the ‘cards’ of the video say?

“Cards”?

Sorry, they’re called chapters, not cards
