BMP-3 Weaponry

The "Trojka" is one of the most heavily armed combat vehicles around, fitted with a 100mm main gun, which can fire conventional HE-Frag shells or 9M117 (AT-10 Stabber) ATGMs (40 rounds + 8 ATGM are carried), a 30mm autocannon with 500 rounds, and a 7.62mm machine gun with 2,000 rounds, all mounted coaxially in the turret. There are also two 7.62mm bow machine guns, again with each 2,000 rounds. The BMP-3 is capable of engaging targets out to 5,000 - 6,000 meters, with its ATGM weapon system 9K116-3 "Basnya" (with an approximately eighty percent probability of a hit at that range).

So...can has? Currently, IIRC, all it has is the cannon (firing heat only) and sabot coax auto-cannon. Am I to assume the current one is a place holder?

For an APC its allready very powerfull in PR

you could do some balancing like giving it less armor (this might be realistic) or lower speed (probably not that realistic) or something else like that.

Or in the balancing equation treat it like another tank.

Well, according to Wikipedia <fail> it's pretty kick ass.

Im seeing this vehicle becoming more usefull in the term of balance, once and if the US army faction arrives, to counter the M2 Bradley. Unlike all the other APCs ingame, the M2 would still have its dubble tow laucher, it also has a 25mm gun and a co-ax machine gun.

A coax would be nice, currently you can't counter infantry with the BMP, unless you shoot 30 mm AP rounds at them

BetterDeadThanRed · 02-06-2008, 02:48 PM

8 ATGMs + 40 HEAT rounds + 500 30mm rounds + 3 PKTs w/ 2000 rounds.

Nice.

Yea but in theory the normal apc should have AT missiles but that was removed for pr so its all in line still

I think realistically representing the BMP would be really cool, and continue along the road to having asymmetrical armies. Do remember that there is a limit to the number of weapons you can control with one player in the BF2 engine, but I think having the driver seat control some MGs on the front would be a good idea.

When I return home in 2 or 3 hours I'll have a look at the number of weapons that can be controlled on vehicles, but I'm pretty sure that you're limited to a pair of primaries and a coaxial, as most of the APCs are currently equipped. But I'll check it out.
