The BMP-3 is the latest in the long line of BMP series IFVs, following the BMP-1 and BMP-2. The upgraded vehicle is called the BMP-3M and the new turret includes an automatic fire control system with digital computer and a new BZS1 gunner’s sight with SAGEM thermal imager and laser illuminator. The BMP-3M can fire new 100mm laser-guided projectiles, new 100mm HE-FRAG (high explosive fragmentation) rounds and new 30mm APDS (armor piercing discarding sabot) rounds. Additional passive armor protection is effective against 12.7mm armor-piercing rounds from a range of 50 meters. Explosive reactive armor is available as an option.
