“Kurgan" (BMP) – the future of the Russian infantry. The technique is a universal tracked platform designed by the engineers of the Russian company «tractor plants". The prototypes for testing was released in 2015, and serial production is scheduled to begin in 2017. Model will replace the standing armed with the Russian army BMP.
When designing infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) “kurganets-25” engineers have focused on creating a modular design that will facilitate future repair, refurbishment and retrofitting of equipment. The APC is a unified tracked platform – at its base it is planned to create several variations of military vehicles:
The Engine is placed in front of, and slightly offset to the right. Here is the transmission. This arrangement of the engine compartment allows you to create an improved layout of machines that helped to put inside 8 people. Their landing is via a ramp at the rear with additional door.
“Kurgan" (BMP) operated by three crew members. Protection soldier system performs a passive reservation in conjunction with the active protection module is installed on the tower, and to enhance security within the ammunition and weapons placed in isolated from the passengers compartment.
Good permeability equipment is provided with the hydropneumatic suspension system with adjustable ground clearance.
Depending on the type of combat vehicles formed the main armament of equipment. So, ACS on the basis of the described techniques is equipped with an anti-tank gun (125 mm). But to equip other armored vehicles – BMP "kurganets-25” and BMP “boomerang” – used combat unit in the radio BM “boomerang”. It includes the automatic gun 30 mm caliber with a selective power on the basis of the two boxes, machine gun (7.62 mm) and two double launchers anti-tank missile system “Kornet”.
A Feature of the combat module is the ability to control them with the help of computerized motors. Such a possibility exists, the commander and gunner. Moreover, the complex is able to independently monitor the specified member of the crew goal, firing to the complete destruction of the enemy. The extension of the review “Kurgan" (BMP) equipped with surveillance cameras. Troops can also carry fire through slits in the rear doors of equipment.

Along with the development of the vehicle “Kurgan" (BMP), the design of the new BMP “Knight”. It is based on MT-LB – multipurpose light-armored Transporter – “Arctic”, which from the middle of the XX century is the main military equipment in the polar regions of our country.
Many believe that “kurganets-25” and promising BMP “Knight” is similar. In fact, they have many differences. The first is the type of motor used. On the “Knight” it is planned to install diesel-gas turbine power unit, which proved to be excellent in low-temperature. The second is design. Reportedly, the latest model will have two links – directly to the tractor and “trailer”, equipped with different weapons.
The Car will be tailored for combat missions. To protect crew members capable of massive armor, reinforced anti-mine protection system and on-Board information management system.
The government of the Russian Federation adopted a decision already entered into force, on the renewal of military vehicles army. You can say that the problem began to be implemented in 2015, when in may were presented a modern battle heavy tank "Armata".
“Shape” and “kurganets-25” is a modern Russian development. Despite the fact that BMP and TT is absolutely impossible to compare between them we see a relationship that is to use both machines firing module "BM-boomerang”. Thanks to the complex managed to create a “desert tower” – pointing of weapons is carried out remotely and can be automated.
A New infantry fighting vehicles of Russia «kurganets-25” promises to be an exceptional machine of infantry in the Russian army. Her “opponent” in this field is BMP “Accommodate”, which is the world's first heavily armored Transporter army. “Covered” created on a tracked platform "Armata" and was presented in the same 2015 at the Victory parade.
Combined protection technique ensures the safety of the troops and crew not only from bullets, shrapnel, but also from tank shells. Another feature is the 4 launchermissile unit, which can produce shells with a delay much smaller than the period of actuation of the active protection of cars of the enemy, thus providing a 100% defeat the purpose.
In 2015 (in the same year, was shown the first prototype BMP “kurganets-25”) together with the vehicle on the basis of a unified heavy tracked platform "Armata" to the public at the victory parade was presented to the war machine “boomerang”. The main difference is the use of conventional wheelsets, not caterpillar tracks.
Wheeled platform can be equipped with various means of fire. But the main armament is presented by the familiar robotic module “boomerang”. The layout of equipment has a front engine that allows you to land troops from the stern. Flotation machine is provided by four-stroke power unit on the engine capacity of 510 horsepower.
These are just some of the representatives of modern combat vehicles of the Russian army. Trial operation of the presented techniques started in 2015. Serial production is expected to begin in 2016-2017. It only says that in the foreseeable future we will have a full update of military technical Park, which will include “kurganets-25” – the world's best infantry fighting vehicles, and equipment on the basis of the "Armata” and “boomerang”.
