Possible bug in airborne drops

[Arralen]

So you expect to strap a 'chute on a BMD and toss it out of the back of a plane and it coming out of this without any scratch??

Obviously, the makers/deployers of the thing do think that way, too:
"The BMD-3 can be airdropped from transport aircraft with the complete crew of seven men remaining inside the vehicle. In the past, the crew was dropped separately, and it often took a considerable time for them to locate the vehicle."

I would be interested in real figures about drop casualties, though
