      Because they're in the same category as the BTR-50A's. Aka the shit we tossed at the frontline because we don't have enough "modern" (BMP-1P) IFV's, so we'll through in gun trucks, museum pieces like the 50A, or prototypes with the production run of 20 and zero parts and training interchangeability, because the alternative for the infantry would be attacking on foot over a range of several kilometers, which in this day and age just means being exterminated by mortar and drone attacks without achieving anything at all. Not that they achieve much with vehicles, but at least they have a chance them; it's their problem they squander it due to every other element of Russian MiC being completely rotten to the core.

        Russia 'running out of shit' does not equate to 'run out of shit'. The fact they are bringing in prototype/non-production models suggests that they are indeed 'running out of shit'. We saw 50's APCs being deployed. That isn't what you expect from the 2nd greatest army in the world. Imagine the USA rocking up to China in M75's.

          you can cross out the ERA blocks on the t-62s because they're not even bothering anymore with their latest iteration. tbf its not like ERA has been saving their armor anyway.

      They were suppose to received the 'first batch' in 2019 for trials. It still hasn't had official certification yet. It'd be weird for them to deploy a tank that literally hasn't been given the greenlight in the military. But I dunno how many a 'batch' is. Half a dozen? A dozen? 20?

      What's wrong with the BTR? Seems like a perfectly solid platform and it blew apart many a Ukranian and a few Russians too if you count the Ukranian BTR-4

        I think it depends on the BTR series they're meant to replace.
        Some of the earlier models had the troops crawl out of hatches barely larger than a person in the top of the vehicle, which obviously takes a while as equipment often gets jammed in the hole if you're not careful.

        The meme answer is 'Yes'.
        The slightly less meme answer is 'Depends on the version'
        In no particular order:
        The doors are too small, the early version had idiotic side doors, the dual engines were not very good to put it mildly, the armament varied between pointless amchinegun and cannon that takes up too much space while having no optics, the internals were too cramped, there is no protection against mines, the driver can choose between being not protected and not seeing shit.
        The rael upside is that they're resistant to rifle caliber machine gun fire, have a heavy machine gun in a turret and that they go pretty fast on roads.

        So yeah, you might just as well get a Mercedes Minibus and a Toyota Hilux with an HMG. You'll be slightly less resistant to enemy fire, but you will be faster and have more comfortable seats.

    A digital fire control system, a battle management system, and advanced communications equipment allows it to operate effectively in complex and dynamic battlefield environments.

    The question is how much more expensive is it compared to the BTR and can it be mass produced effectively?
