The Kurganets-25 is a tracked modular platform that will be used as a basis to build new types of infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The Kurganets-25 platform can carry a crew of three and eight personnel. It is a fully amphibious vehicle, travelling at a speed of over 6 miles per hour in the water.

The Kurganets-25 platform can be fitted with a 30mm automatic cannon, a 7.62mm machine gun and four Kornet anti-tank guided missile launchers.

The first combat-ready vehicles are set to be produced by 2020 as only prototypes have been displayed so far.
