Fallout Re: Russian vehicles

Have to work and will have company for the next couple of days so...

1. Delete UNIT 207 BTR-90M- Never got out of the prototype stage. But save somewhere as this should/could be the START POINT for the BTR-100/Boomerang WITH MODIFICATION.

2. BTR-90 program cancelled in Oct. 2011. Limited numbers built and mostly only used by internal security forces. Egress of troops was a flaw in it's design so was not used widely by front line units. So you can keep it to represent type or delete at your discretion.

3. FORGET BOOMERANG FOR NOW except as noted in #1.

4. ADD BTR-82/82A these were designed to fix the issues of the BTR-90 but still incorporate major improvements over the BTR-80. This is the "bridge" mod from the BTR-80/90 series to thew new BTR-100 BOOMERANG. Have more on the BTR-82 in the APC Thread from what's noted in the previous post to yours and it is shown in that BTER-80 Ref you noted.

Gotta run!!!!!!

Regards,
Pat
