The BT-3F is an amphibious armoured vehicle based on the BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle. The original turret was replaced by a smaller remote weapon station with either 7.62, 12.7 or 14.5mm machine gun. It can accommodate a crew commander, driver, gunner, and 14 troops, and can use optional ERA armour.

It is awesome carrier, but why we can’t comment UAE call to Assad? I don’t get that. Country that has been openly against Syria and very vocal, providing Wahhabis with arms etc. now wants to help Syria? Whay kind of BS is this? Anyways, article is worthless…

Jens Holm

I agree in that. If there was less bad produced and higly biased comments, the Adm and several other Asmins would make less such limits.

I know a good site, which took away putting in pictures because some gave hundreds of themost blody pictures incl. ISIS and FSA executions.

Before that we easy could create own maps for each other showing and arguing for the next military movements with arroes and forces and even find a winner. That was Internet in its best.

Its very difficult to take out comments. Someone has to read all and next see whats accepted or very good for a site.

You can take out persons and words. Several of my words cant be written here even they can in almost the whole western world.

A lot here probatly has not been allowed because of local dicttor culture as well as people hardly exist even it is allowed to use “motherfucker” and even kill people writing here.

According Assads UAE some might invent a site for sensible articles and put in a machine at least taking the many F words and a few more things away. They could make that article in a different color. People then would know they only could comment almsot nicely.

Jens Holm

So true. See that at many sites too.

We see that very well her ein Denmark. Paintings even famopus for the whole world is taken away for a period and sometimes comes back.

We have tradition for education about all bodypars against a lot of important stuf, but we use normal pictures, which is forbidden in Islam and also for Hindus. Why should they decide in my country.

We see the same about homos and Jews. We have no problems about them at all. We handled them as anybod else.

And someones uses screenshots for being monetized. Like some guys from Denmark writing meaningless answers. ROFL How do you captain? Guess many of your friends do understand now that prepping was not so bad idea.

Harry Smith

The carantine if it would be established over your community will shock them too, I think. We are on a 1 week self isolation here in Russia, and I surprisingly found that I have almost all I need to live 1 week without exiting my land. :) Awareness is always good. 2 is 1 and 1 is none.

Let’s just hijack this thread and make it about Assad and the UAE. The fact that they’ve blocked comments is very intriguing. Hopefully it was just a dumb mistake

Nice. I would put a 30mm autocannon on top tho.

Zarathustra

That would turn it back into an IFV, the whole point of an APC is to carry troops. The IFV is intended to carry fewer troops in order to increase firepower, beginning with the BMP-1 and the Marder IFV (not to be confused with the Marder I, II and III used in WWII).

There was a proposed recon variant of the BMP-3 called the BRM-3K armed with a 30mm autocannon that was never put into production, the BT3F has never seen service with Russian armed forces but was sold to Indonesia for use by their naval marines, together with the BMP-3F and the original variant of the Sprut amphibious/airborne light tank destroyer with a 125mm main gun and 7.62x39mm remote-controlled machine gun. I suspect the BRM-3K with the AU-220M turret and 57mm semi-auto cannon will be put into service some point between 2021-2024.

There is also the proposed Udar UCGV (Unmanned Combat Ground Vehicle) on the BMP-3 chassis, the role proposed is reconnaissance.

14 is a lot for that little one. Good design for the top of it, where some more troopers can be added.

all it takes is 1 AGM-hellfire and goodbye BMP-3

US Navy currently has 2 aircraft carriers in the Middle East, and 1 amphibious assault ship in the Red Sea! MAJOR US MILITARY OPERATION being prepared to destroy Hezbollah in Iraq and Syria.

Currently off the Saudi Coast – USS Truman and USS Eisenhower – each carrying a combined 180 fighter jets including 100 F/A-18 Super Hornets, 30 EA-18 Growlers, 40 F-18C, and 10 EA-6 Prowlers!

Each carrier group has 4 guided-missile cruisers/destroyers (2 arleigh burke class and 2 ticonderoga class) meaning up to 12 destroyers in total! arleigh burke can carry 96 Tomahawk missiles while the Ticonderoga’s can carry 122! Meaning a combined force of maximum 1308 tomahawk missiles ready for launch!

USS Bataan also in Red Sea carrying up to 20 F-35 stealth fighters!

US Military has a combined force of 200 fighter jets, stealth fighters, electronic warfare jets, and up to 1000 tomahawks ready for launch at Iran. NO DOUBT, iraqi and syrian hezbollah will be utterly pulverized and destroyed. There’s NOWHERE they can run or hide from such immense firepower. They will be ended.

the russkies and chinese can only DREAM of having a massive powerful military like this

<>

True, and U.S Forces can rest and resupply here in Israel, we have everything they need :) Stay safe!

Avi Schwartz (IDF:71, hamas:0)

Thanks man! you as well!

Wayne Nicholson

True …. You can bet the ‘russkies and Chinese’ have satellites over those assets right now monitoring them.

For sure they’re going to bid on them when the bankruptcy sale comes up but in the mean time if the USN has to evacuate the crew in International waters they can be picked up for free under salvage laws.

In a couple of weeks as the virus progresses these ships are going to be just like the cruise ships floating around that no one will let dock. Too many sick and dying sailors to crew the ships so no choice but to evacuate the ships and this virus doesn’t seem to produce immunity so the virus will just keep cycling through sailors until they’re either off the boat or dead.

Yes, indeed… 2 aircraft carrier’s ridden with Corona virus… Nice statistics, from which computer game did you get them?

Avi Schwartz (IDF:71, hamas:0)

fleet tracker archive you schmuck!

Bob

Curious how Israeli’s endlessly boast about US military prowess – yet, reality check – it all belongs to US taxpayers, not to Israel. It signifies profound insecurity to routinely lay claim to, and boast about, somebody else’s resources.

Avi Schwartz (IDF:71, hamas:0)

you wish, antisemite

Bob

‘antisemite’ that cheap canard wont wash here – debate the facts or disappear
