Moscow , September 9, 2020 , 10:39 pm - REGNUM The main difference between the Kurganets-25 BMP from existing and future foreign tracked armored vehicles will be more powerful weapons, Izvestia reports on September 9, citing sources in the military-industrial complex.

We are talking about the Epoch combat module, which includes an LSHO-57 57-mm low-ballistic cannon, Kornet long-range anti-tank guided missiles, and Bulat small-sized guided missiles to destroy enemy light armored vehicles and firing points.

In addition, the crew and troops will be accommodated in a capsule isolated from weapons and ammunition with special seats that protect servicemen from the consequences of being blown up by mines.

Additional protection will be provided by the engine located in the front of the hull.

The main difference between the Kurganets-25 BMP will be its equipment with the Afghanit active protection complex (KAZ), which destroys anti-tank grenades and missiles while still approaching.

Previously, KAZ were intended only for equipping main battle tanks.

As reported by IA REGNUM , the RF Ministry of Defense has agreed on the timing of state tests of the Kurganets-25 armored vehicle family.
