30-mm shells with remote detonation have been created for the Terminator tank support combat vehicle. They will allow BMPT to hit not only ground targets, but also miniature drones.

- Small-caliber remote detonation ammunition is a global trend. They significantly increase the effectiveness of artillery systems when hitting small-sized ground and air targets. The development of a controlled remote detonation complex for the Terminator BMPT has been completed," Oleg Chizhevsky, the general designer of the NGO Pribor, who created the shells, told RIA Novosti.

Unlike foreign analogues, the Russian system does not require modification of guns, the designer noted. High-precision programmable detonation at a given point increases the effectiveness of the fragmentation effect of shells by 4-5 times. The complex has been transferred to state tests.

The Terminator BMPT is designed both to protect tanks from grenade launchers, ATGMs and anti-tank guns, and to independently combat a wide range of targets: from infantry entrenched in fortifications to armored vehicles. In addition to the machine gun, grenade launchers and anti-tank missiles, the car is armed with two 30-mm automatic guns. The first company of Terminators is undergoing military tests in the Urals.
