  1. I just realized there’s also a vehicle in front of that BMP-3 going into the trees. I wonder how they felt seeing their BMP get blown up.

  2. Sadly, seems like whomever they were shooting at got totally destroyed. If not by the bullets than the explosion.

  3. Not just being sprayed with bullets but also with burning fuel.. sheesh!

  4. It always amazes me how destructive vehicle explosions are. Even taking out an enemy vehicle, poses a massive risk of collateral damage to your own troops. They’re like bombs with wheels and guns on them. It must be nerve-racking to be a passenger in one of these things.

  5. For those who believe in reincarnation, that explosion would have even killed what they were hoping to be born next as.

  6. Nonono, that was not a catastrophic explosion, it was a gooood one!

  7. Hit by ATGM?

    BMP 3 looks like it was trying to supress troops in that treeline while the other vehicle is entering the treeline.

  8. The terror of watching this thing approaching your position, the relief of watching it disintegrate, and the terror of watching the giant fireball approaching your position.

  9. Explosion and subsequent fireball probably did more harm to the tree line than the cannon fire! Goddamn. 🔥

  10. That was an absolutely massive blast. Was that thing loaded with more explosives or something? I feel like even loaded TOS-1As don’t explode that big.

  11. Whoever was in the tree line had a whole tank splattered on them not just bmp

  12. Friends who know how to play these videos frame-by-frame, would you please post a video still of (presumably) the missile that hit the BMP? Thanks.

  13. The BMP-3 specifically is renowned for causing the biggest explosions. An alluminum armored IFV filled with 100mm ammo is bound to detonate.

  14. I’m assuming there were people waiting to dismount…

  15. The title makes me laugh because it makes it sound like the BMP was engaging the big bad trees.

  16. The bmp literally became a flamethrower for the area it was attacking

  17. This is what happens when you let a teenager with ADHD design the weaponry for an IFV: it’s got everything on it and as such is packed with ammo for all those weapons, including 40 100mm shells and 8 ATGMs. Yes they can play ‘take that nazi treeline muh huh huh huh’ but when the treeline fires back all those shells are going to go up like a small VBIED.
