Protected and Deadly: What do Fighters of the Armed Forces about Swedish BMP CV90 (photo)

Sweden transmitted not only the BMP CV9040 to Ukraine, but also command-staff machines, which are almost indistinguishable from usual. The Ukrainian army has one of the most technological BMP in the world - it is the Swedish BMP CV90. Among its advantages is the protection of the crew and the landing. This was reported in the report of the Armyinform. BMP CV90 Swedish production was compared with the Russian BMP. It has a better protection of crew and landing.

The body of the machine is made of solid welded steel structure. The driver mechanic is located, as in the Soviet machines on the left, and the landing compartment-in the back of the machine. The crew consists of three people. BMP reservations protect the shells of up to 30 mm, anti -tank equipment and small arms. In addition, the machine has a mine protection. Additionally, BMPs can be either with modular reservation packages or with Barracuda masking.

The latter reduces the visibility of technology in different spectra. The machine also has rubber inserts in caterpillars, which reduce the noise while driving. The journalists were shown not only the basic CV9040, but also the command-staff machine on its basis. It lacks heavy weapons on the tower or the tower itself. Instead, it is installed a piece so that the enemy could not distinguish the CSM from the usual infantry fighting machine.

The landing department has 6 seats for officers, each with access to internal and external connection. CV90 has air conditioning and air purification system. Moreover, there is even an electric kettle for the military in a separate tight box. We will remind, on July 19 the media wrote that in the Ukrainian army they noticed Swedish Bram Bgbv 90, which were probably transmitted with BMP. On June 19, the media reported that Ukraine is interested in purchasing up to 1000 Swedish BMP CV90.
