BMPT Terminator the tank hunter…

The BMPT “Terminator” is a post-Cold war armored fighting vehicle (AFV), designed and manufactured by the Russian company Uralvagonzavod. This vehicle was designed for supporting tanks and other AFVs in urban areas. The BMPT is unofficially named the “Terminator” by the manufacturers. It is heavily armed and armored to survive in urban combat. This AFV is armed with four 9M120 Ataka missile launchers, two 30 mm 2A42 autocannons, two AG-17D grenade launchers, and one coaxial 7.62 mm PKTM machine gun…

I talk about and study the weaponry that Russia is turning out. One thing that Russia has that has caught my eye, is a tank that is specially designed to hunt other tanks. It is fast and armed with missiles, no heavy gun as in many tanks, but tank killing missiles…

One of the heavily produced 24/7/365 days a year weapons is called the “Terminator” and called it for a good reason….it is built recently and designed strictly to kill any tanks that crawl there way into Russia….basically an urban defensive weapon, against attacking forces from other countries…

They can take a T-72 battle tank and convert it easily to a hunter killer tank. The T-72 is already in massive numbers (maybe 20,000 units from the old days) from past usage and older T-72’s readily convert to these “Terminators”….

The fact that it is being allowed to be shown is that they have now produced/upgraded unbelievable numbers of these tanks….Russia is getting ready for war and they fully expect to be invaded…

Most weaponry that Russia has developed is designed to fight toe to toe with anyone dumb enough to invade Russia and I know some countries that are pushing for just that…
