BMP T-15 ARMATA IFV

The 2015 Moscow Victory Day Parade became a showcase of new Russian armored vehicles and among them the “BMP T-15 Armata” Heavy Infantry Fighting Vehicle (HIFV) stood out, which together with the T-14 Armata MBT, became the stars of the parade. The T-15 Armata IFV is the second vehicle to come out of the Armata (family of heavy unified battlefield platforms) program, and unfortunately, this vehicle is suffering from the same development and production problems as the T-14 MBT.
