Would like to hear if this would be out of interest to anyone in the SB community? best regards Deekay About time Deekay so go go 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian90 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 BMP-3 main armament was primary designed for fire support missions, including destruction of fortified positions, however in general vehicle is not considered as a great success, this is why new IFV Kurganets-25 will have design more similiar to western IFV's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian90 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 A fact that not many were made and it's replacement returns to conventional IFV layout is enough? To explain some things pure logic is enough. Not to mention that BMP-3's chassis base have it's lineage in light tank design not the proper IFV. There are other problems like ergonomics, we can all see how cumbersome for troops is to get in or out, interior is cramped, and it's not the best layout for infantry carrier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However some of us don't live in a altered reality, we require facts, and sources. That said I will return to what is commonly known as our reality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marko Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) I would not hold the BMP-3 in high regard either but its fire power is impressive. IMO its more of a support platform then a IFV. The UAE tried to increase its survivability by fitting specially design ERA They also fitted a French thermal sight which should improve its accuracy considerably I hope Esim sorts out the issue with the 100mm gun soon. It will be interesting to use the BMP-3 as a fire support weapon with the 100mm working properly Edited September 26, 2016 by Marko 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian90 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 4S24 ERA for BMP-3 was never fielded, same with kits for BMP-2 and BMP-1, dunno why they never done so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read once that ERA fitted to BMP-1 and BMP-2 would sometimes stop the HEAT warhead hitting it, only to fracture the hull of the vehicle and blast fragments all around the inside due to the force of it's own explosion... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maj.Hans Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 21 hours ago, dejawolf said: vastly superior THE MOST SUPERIORIST OF ALL! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! In all seriousness, the CV90 has always been an interesting vehicle to me. In some ways it has some features that I think make it superior to the M2/M3 Bradley as an IFV, in other ways I find it lacking. For example, the fact that the CV90 has a good way for the troops inside to fight while mounted in the vehicle, is something that I really like. In some ways it might be crude, hearkening back to the days of soldiers riding in open top SPW-251's and M3 Half-Tracks with open tops, firing over the side. But then again, if somebody opens the roof hatch and hoses you down with an M-4 or an AK-5, you won't feel any better just because he wasn't using some kind of fancy firing port! 12 hours ago, ChrisWerb said: The BMP-3 is really strange and less than ideal for dismounts to mount/dismount due That's utterly pathetic!

The worst feature of the CV90/35 is that it doesn't hold any ammunition, and it takes three days to reload the main gun... Does the real vehicle have a way to load faster? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted September 27, 2016 Members Share Posted September 27, 2016 Is there a desire to split off pretty much every message in this thread from the original announcement, maybe save for messages of endorsement? The way I see it, if this was intended to become a CV90/35 reference thread, it's a failure. DK-DDAM, maybe it's better to work on the SB Wiki directly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happend with standard 4S20 Kontakt-1 ERA. 4S24 is a special ERA designed for lightweight platforms, I might later show you a video in History of Soviet Tanks thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsmandk Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Came here for a cv9035dk lesson and ended up with bmp3 and Godzilla stuff. Dk has been kind enough to help us understand the firecontrol stuff and other issues. So can a mod maybe do some cleaning and let's keep to topic plz.
