It is equipped with a bulldozer blade, a machine gun and protection against the effects of a nuclear strike, making it particularly valuable for the Russians. Russian troops refer to it as a “tracked terminator”.
The vehicle can independently overcome mine barriers and has heavy armour. Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, only two IMR-3Ms have been visually confirmed destroyed by Ukrainian forces, the last one more than a year ago.
Background: On 21 September, the Prymary (Phantoms) special unit of Defence Intelligence of Ukraine released a video showing the destruction of Russian military equipment in occupied Crimea.
