Milkman 1 Posted December 18, 2002 I was just wondering if anyone was working on a BMP-3 model. If your interested in creating one, go to http://www.army-technology.com/projects/bmp-3/ Overview of the BMP-3: The main armament of the BMP-3 is a 100mm 2A70 semi-automatic rifled gun/missile launcher, which is stabilised in two axes and can fire either 3UOF HE-FRAG (High Explosive-Fragmentation) rounds or 3UBK10 anti-tank guided missiles. Effective range for the HE-FRAG round is 4,000m. Muzzle velocity is 250m/s. 22 HE-FRAG rounds can be carried in the automatic loader, total ammunition load being 40 rounds. Rate of fire is 10 rounds per minute. Respond to me if you know anything about a BMP-3 addon. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks  <span id='postcolor'> There was one that was made a long while back, or at least the model was made.  However apparently it never saw the light of day.  Unfortunately I can't remember who was working on it, but I think I saw it on an old thread on this forum.  It might be worth searching the archives for it.  I agree however that this would be an excellent addon.  It's really quite an amazing infantry fighting vehicle.  I was reading about how in some tests in I believe Qatar or the United Arab Emirates, there was competition done between it and several other Western Infantry Fighting Vehicles (which included the M2 Bradley IFV).  In the end the BMP-3 won the competition.  When bought with the thermal imaging optics it really stands out on its own and is a remarkable compact piece of mobile armored firepower/transportation. Oh... I should also note, that in addition to it's 100mm cannon/missle system, it also has a 30mm auto-cannon on it and a coaxial 7.62mm machien gun. How they stuff all that weaponry in one turret is beyond me but it's damn impressive! So I hope someone does make it.  Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eviscerator 0 Posted December 18, 2002 i think that model that was made was a BMD-3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milkman 1 Posted December 18, 2002 I saw the BMD-3 model, but a BMD-3 is basically a BMP-2 that has been shrunk down to be paradropped off of airplanes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eviscerator 0 Posted December 18, 2002 er no...the shape is actually a lot different, another armoured vehicle i wouldnt mind being made is the the BMD-3M, it's a fearsome machine, a parachuteable IFV with BMP-3 weapons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milkman 1 Posted December 19, 2002 hmmm the BMD-3 I saw had different weaponry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eviscerator 0 Posted December 19, 2002 thats because that vehicle is not a BMD-3, its a BMD-3M the old BMD-3 (i think the M stands for modernised, or equivalent in russian) is armed with the 2A42 cannon seen on the BMD-2 and BMP-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
