Honestly, I did not read that from your post... that you had pulled it already from your OOB. If it is a portend of a patch release, hooray!

Truly, as I do development work, where I get paid, I never do it in the production folders or on the production machines. So, yeah, although I am thinking, just was not on the same page as you. Now, I know and thanks for the heads-up, and the reminder.

The BTR-90 is being used in small numbers by interior ministry troops and that number PROBABLY exceeds DOZENS of units entered in both games OOB's that nobody ever questions but I have given up fighting this BTR-90 issue and have pulled all the units from the game now.

As noted in the MBT Thread, Don and I have had some discussion about the "BOOMERANG" over the last 2>3 years now. Well from when I first came across this and brought it up I can finally say it exists. Again it sorta reminds me of the Patria AMV.

The highlighted portions will link you to those pieces of equipment I mentioned in the MBT Thread.

Not mentioned is the fact that the Russian Paras are starting to take deliveries of 2 different types of APC/IFV's.

Another Boomerang pic.
There're rumours, that Russians are preparing a fire support version of Boomerang with heavier weaponry.

Big pictures of T-15 and Kurganets.
Looks like there are TWO types of APS on every vehicle...

Alright from the ref below, the following pieces of equipment have been "approved" to appear in the Russian Victory Day Parade. With the following exceptions the rest are on my tracking sheet for submission of which over 3/4 are or will be fielded this year. The exceptions are the GAZ, S-400, ICBM and the T-90A which I thought was a couple of years out yet. Obviously due to limits of the OOB at current levels I will need to prioritize these submissions. This collection on the whole (Less ICBM one.) I believe would fill out the Russian OOB.

I put this here as the ref is more APC/IFV heavy then in the other categories.

All new russian vehicles with turrets revealed. I think there is also an IFV Boomerang variant.

The information from the official website of the Ministry of Defence of Russia.

Welcome to the logistics nightmare

[EpoletovSPR]

Conversely.
Platform Armata = Tank, Heavy APC
Platform Kurganets-25 = Tracked APC, IFV
Platform Bumerang = Wheeled APC

Minimum type, maximum variants.

In Russia varied landscape and need a variety of machines.

Show me a country in which there are no problems of logistics ?
