It's from a documentary on 90s' Russia, saw a very compact looking helmet. Not sure what it's called.

Otherwise, it's a titanium Sphera and it is very famous.

Wh-what's the advantage over a steel pot style helmet? Even if it stopped a bullet, wouldn't it give you a nasty contusion on the scalp, or just cave in your temples?

How is it different from any other armor?

This one does not count. Fuel tanks were only there for long distance travelling and would be drained before battle.
And who is going to shoot at your rear in a convoy anyway ?

That is why you have padding inside anon.

>>32210188
Do you know that the doors are the very rear of the BMP and highly overrated? If you manage to have a 50 cal right behind you then you did something very wrong.

You fucking nigger...You live in the timeline that asymmetric warfare dont exist?

Both the BMP-1 and BMP-2 were the best designs of their era. You can try to disprove me but you can't. In terms of armor protection, armament, mobility and transportation capability they were all a notch ahead of the competition. And in case of the BMP-1, there was no competition at all.
