Description
BMD-1. -Boevaya Mashina Desanta ( Airborne Combat Vehicle) - was designed as an airborne counterpart of the army’s best armored infantry vehicle, the BMP-1. Both vehicles shared the same armament system: a single-man turret with a 73mm Grom low-pressure gun and a launcher for 9M14M Maliutka anti-tank missile. Because the BMD was designed for airborne drop, it’s size and weight had to be considerably trimmed - combat loaded weight under 7 tons (over 13 for BMP).
