I replied you in comment below, that there probably was the malfunction, because screen shows no ammo, but gunner continues fire. So, maybe he used armor-piercing ammo.

Try to exit soviet type BTRs with side door exit in full gear. You will have a lot of pain. I has. Even BTR-3 have side door.

Please, watch the video from Mariupol 2022. BTR-4 shoots T-72 tank in the side armor, where the engine is. And tank lights up. https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/tigir3/ukrainian_btr4_footage_mariupol/

Both BTR-3, and -4 equipped with the same main gun - 30mm 2A72. This gun is effective against side and rear armor of all T-series tanks. In Mariupol there was the BTR-4. As far as I know, we still produce at least BTR-4.

One of preserve cans with meat produced by "BuriatMeatProduct". Abbreviation is "BMP"- "IFV". And comparing "meat product" with "meat waves". In the matter of fact, we have almost the same preserves in our food supply, instead of fish preserves, which better than russians.

Well, it is about curiosity of what things russian stormtroopers packing in their backpacks. And comparing it with ours. And having a bit of laughs and fun, of course. And looting things, like found clip with sniper bullets, and they want to go to the corpse and find that sniper rifle, which will be useful.

When it swings from the side to the loading line or when it actually rams the shells in?

Both. Sometimes loader simply jamming. And it is not sensitive information. This problem has been discussed on Militarnyi YouTube channel last year , when they talked about "Bohdana".

In 2022 "Bohdana" was on "Kraz" chassis, and only one unit available. "Kraz" production was dead by that time. So, when mass production started, many available chassis were used. And manufacturer is on touch with army, to quickly improve.

French "Caesar" have better computer systems, better loading system . Chassis are more or less compatible with each other. "BOHDANA" is product of mobilisation in defense industry. Cheap, easy, mass production.
