Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

The BMP-3 is a much improved infantry fighting vehicle bristing with a 100mm cannon, a 30mm autocannon and a 7.62mm machine gun, all coaxially mounted.

[Regnum] Kurganmashzavod (part of the High-Precision Complexes holding of the Rostec state corporation) handed over a batch of third-generation infantry fighting vehicles to the Ministry of Defense. The press service of High Precision Systemsreported this on April 5

“Kurganmashplant “High-precision complexes” has delivered the next batch of third-generation infantry fighting vehicles BMP-3 as part of the execution of the state defense order,” the statement says.

It is noted that the company has been increasing the production volume of military equipment for two years, improving it for the tasks of the defense department.

The press service clarified that Kurganmashzavod, as part of a special operating regime, increased its staff, recruiting over 2,000 workers of basic professions and specialists in 2023 alone.

Earlier, Roman Khromov, Deputy Executive Director for State Defense and Military-Technical Cooperation of Kurganmashzavod, said in an interview with RIA Novosti that a study of a captured American infantry fighting vehicle showed that it is completely inferior to the BMP-3. He clarified that the Russian armored vehicle with a powerful weapon destroys American infantry fighting vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with one shot.

As Regnum reported, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said on March 20 that since the beginning of 2024, the Armed Forces have destroyed four American Abrams tanks, five German Leopards, 27 Bradley armored vehicles and Western-made MLRS and air defense missile launchers during battles.

The head of the defense department noted that it is increasingly difficult for Western countries to argue for continued funding and supplies of weapons to Kyiv, which is why the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had to bring reserves into battle, including the most expensive samples of provided foreign equipment. Ukrainian troops lost a total of 11 thousand units of various weapons, he added.
