In 2018, the first batch of modernized BMP-2M infantry fighting vehicles arrived for service with the Russian army. It looks like the Russian Defense Ministry has determined how the 3,500 BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicles currently in service would be upgraded. If the tests of the 16 acquired machines prove successful, the bulk of the BMP-2 inventory will get new lease of life, the Military-Industrial Courier newspaper reports.
