The tank support fighting vehicle (BMPT) «Terminator» draws attention not only for its firepower but also for its unusually large crew. Five people operate the machine — a choice that directly shapes how it performs in combat.

Each crew member has a clearly defined role. The commander assesses the battlefield and assigns tasks, setting the pace for the entire crew. The driver-mechanic handles movement, making full use of the tracked platform’s maneuverability. The gunner-operator is responsible for engaging targets with the main weapons, ensuring accuracy. Two grenade launcher operators complete the team: positioned under armor, they are tasked with covering the flanks.

According to Krasnaya Zvezda, this coordination allows the vehicle to engage multiple targets across different sectors at once, maintaining a dense and continuous stream of fire.

In terms of design, the «Terminator» is based on the T-90A tank and inherits its composite armor. Additional protection comes from the «Relikt» reactive armor system. Its armament includes twin 30 mm automatic cannons, a machine gun, automatic grenade launchers, and «Ataka» anti-tank guided missiles.
