Before the invasion of Ukraine, Russia boasted about having the world’s largest tank fleet with over 12,500 units, and international military experts were buying into the Kremlin’s hype.
There was a lot of concern among Western experts about Russia’s latest tank, the T-14 Armata, potentially outclassing NATO tanks. Another formidable Russian armored vehicle that raised eyebrows was the menacingly named BMPT Terminator. It was known for its speed, strong armor, and heavy weaponry.
However, when it was put to the test on the battlefields in Ukraine, it failed to live up to expectations, proving ineffective in changing the course of the war. Despite being touted as a terrifying force by the Kremlin, the BMPT Terminator fell short of the claims made by Russia’s military bloggers and Putin’s regime when it faced real combat.
In this video, our military experts delve into the history of the BMPT Terminator and explore why it didn’t perform as advertised when it entered the battlefield.
