Description
The BMD-4M is an upgraded version of the BDM-4 airborne combat vehicle validated in late 2012 and scheduled to enter service with the Russian Airborne Assault Forces by the end of 2013. The 13-ton BMD-4M is equipped with a 100mm gun and carries a crew of two-man and six infantrymen. The BMD-4M features a new chassis, a digital fire control system and high precision weaponry. In late December 2012, the Russian Ministry of Defense took the decision to procure around 1,000 BMD-4M and BTR-MD Rakushka tracked airborne combat vehicles to re-equip the Airborne Forces by 2020. The new armored vehicles will replace the existing BMD-2, which are obsolete, and BMD-3 combat vehicles.
