Ukrainian modification of the BMP-1 with new turret and autocannon on the move.

1. Actually looks cool. Anybody know where the turret is from ?

2. Looks cool, definitely more gun depression that a BMP-2

3. Article about it here. Visually similar to the BMP-1TS and some of the other combat modules we’ve seen on BMPs and BTRs but apparently easier to use and maintain than what’s on the TS.

5. That’s cool as fuck!
   1/35 Kitbashing opportunities in abundance.
   This war has inspired me to move away from WW2 1/35 modelling into current armour used by the Ukrainian Army- done quite a bit so far (indigenous and western armour) and am also building a 1/100 (15mm) scale Ukrainian Army for the Tram Yankee/Flames of War wargame- mostly Soviet era kit with a fair bunch of western support echelons- Bradley, Abrams, M109 SPGs.
   I know the war isn’t a game, so no snarky comments please, I also give 5% of my salary to local and Ukrainian support charities and the Ukrainian flag is still flying outside my house since Feb 2022, where it will remain.
   I’ve had a long interest in WW2 history and weapons but always eschewed modern aspects of warfare, it’s only now that I’ve had a personal and/or emotional connection with a conflict or a sense that a “just” war is being fought in my lifetime.
   Anyway, that looks like one model I’m either going to have to wait for or work out how to kitbash……
