Vehicle I-D: Indian BMP-2, Cold War and beyond!

India still uses the Cold War era Soviet BMP (Boyevaya Mashina Pekhoty-Боевая Машина Пехоты, literally Combat Vehicle Infantry), they have a license to build their own BMP-2s.  In July 2023, it was reported that the Indian Army wants to upgrade their BMP-2s with modern anti-tank missiles.

Despite Japan still being an official monarchy, and its present prime minister is a known neo-imperialist, Japanese snipers are being trained by the U.S. Army, and given tours of U.S. military armored vehicles.  It’s happeneing at Yakima, Washington.

Up until the end of the 2nd World War the United States was officially anti-imperialist, but that all changed no-thanks to Winston Churchill and the Anglophiles that have dominated the U.S. government/corporations since then (British empire-Commonwealth nations are the biggest foreign ‘investors’ in U.S. corporations, Stop Blaming China!). Japan’s modern imperialism was influenced by the British empire.

Japan’s current emporor, Akihito (his father Hirohito reigned during Japan’s genocidal war which was finally stopped by the U.S. dropping two nukes on the island nation in 1945, Hirohito was never charged with war crimes and reigned until his death in 1989), is begging to be allowed to abdicate becasue of his health.  At present Japan’s imperialist law does not allow emporors to abdicate, they must serve until death.  Japanese news media polling shows the majority of Japanese want the law changed.  Prime Minister Abe Shinzo claims the ‘elected’ politicians are working to change the law.

Iconic Russian armor maker now bankrupt?

Despite getting a contract to build 2-hundred new BMP-3 vehicles for the Russian army, KurganMashZavod (KMZ) might be involuntarily declared bankrupt in its home oblast of Kurgan.

BMP is an acronym for Boyevaya Mashina Pekhoty (literally Infantry Combat Vehicle).

East German BMP-1 (1st generation KMZ infantry fighting vehicle)

It was KMZ, during the time of the Soviet Union, who developed the world’s first fully enclosed infantry carrying tanks, later emulated by U.S.-led NATO countries (who called them Armored Personnel Carriers [APC] or Infantry Fighting Vehicles [IFV]).

Iraqi 2nd generation KMZ designed BMP-2

A Russian machine tool company called MTE Group is demanding the Kurgan court declare KMZ bankrupt because it failed to fully payoff its debts to MTE.  News reports say KMZ is also struggling with wage problems and debts to natural gas supplier Gazprom Mezhregiongaz.

About 30 countries around the world use the KMZ designed BMPs.
