Category: Defence Industry

Volume of the production of the chassis will gradually increase. The enterprise is simultaneously involved in the scheduled repair and upgrade of BMD-1, BMD-2, and BMD-3 vehicles. The upgraded BMD-1 becomes equal in its capabilities to the BMD-2.

The BMD-4 is intended to carry out high-mobility offensive and defensive actions both autonomously and in interaction with other types of armoured fighting vehicles of the air-borne troops, as well as with other fighting systems. The crew of the Bakhcha-U consists of 2 persons plus 5 troops. The vehicle is fitted with a multi-fuel diesel engine that enables it to move at a speed of up to 70 km/h. The cruising range is 500 km.

The vehicle is armed with a 30mm 2A42 gun, 100 mm low-pressure gun, 9M11 Konkurs ATGW, Arkan ATGW, AG-17 Plamya grenade launcher, 7.62mm PKT machine gun, and 5.45mm RPKS-74 machine gun.
