The head of the Russian military department, Sergei Shoigu, inspected the advanced control point of the Center group of troops in the SVO zone. During the inspection, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation heard a report by the commander of the group, Lieutenant General Andrei Mordvichev, as well as other staff officers.

Sergei Shoigu was informed about the current situation in the area of the special operation, the progress of the Russian Armed Forces units performing their tasks at the tactical level, as well as the actions taken by the enemy as part of the so-called counteroffensive. In addition, as reported on the website of the Russian military department, a captured Swedish CV-90 BMP was presented to the Minister of Defense.

According to Mordvichev, the Ukrainian military abandoned an armored car, which failed after their RPG-7 hit it, on the battlefield. At the same time, the commander of the Center group of troops noted that Sweden supplied Kiev with the BMP data without tools and a repair kit, which does not allow the enemy to quickly fix problems that arose directly on the spot.

In addition, according to the Lieutenant General, the BMP, which entered service with the Swedish army in 1993, has a number of serious shortcomings.

Firstly, according to the military, she has low survivability due to her high silhouette. Secondly, the CV-90 BMP is not equipped with guided weapons, and the rate of fire from the standard (40-mm rifled gun "Bofors" L70) is very low.

As Mordvichev explained, the shooting is carried out by three magazines of 8 shells. Then it is necessary to recharge, which can take about a minute on average.

During his visit to the forward control point of the Center group of troops, Sergei Shoigu noted the advance of Russian troops in the Red-Liman direction, thanking the fighters and the command staff for tactical successes. In addition, the head of the Defense Ministry once again stressed the importance of pre-emptive artillery and air strikes against the enemy, which is the key to the maximum safety of the lives of our military.
