With this explanation, the BMPT Terminator is certain to show its capabilities. Especially about the potential and technology of the BMPT Terminator, which was previously claimed to be sophisticated. Because there is an explanation that the role of BMPT Terminator will later replace the role of BMP-1.
Not only BMP-1, but BMP-2 is also projected to be replaced by BMPT Terminator. For this reason, the deployment of the BMPT Terminator in the Russia-Ukraine war will be a means of proving it. And it could be that the BMPT Terminator is going crazy because it is equipped with advanced technology and modern quality. Especially the BMPT Terminator weapon system and system which is claimed to be superior in urban warfare.
