It was photoshopped (not only w/ ERA kit, but also by replacing gunner's sight ) back in 2013, by Wiedzmin from otvaga - discussion starting with this post and continuing on the following pages

Looks like still shopped, but without ERA.

   Russia and India signed a contract to extend the licensed production program for T-90S tanks until 2028, Russian Industry and Trade Minister Denis Manturov said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
   “In 2019, a contract was signed with the Indian side to extend the program for licensed production of T-90S tanks until 2028, and, as we know, the Defense Procurement Council approved the production of 464 tanks of this model. In addition, proposals were made to the Indian side for supplies and joint production modern vehicles: BTR-82A, BMP-3, self-propelled anti-tank gun Sprut SDM1," said Manturov.

What role could the BMP-1 have on the modern battlefield? From everything I hear, it's obsolete in every way.

I still prefer to have BMP-1 over having no armor at all.

   Any role you want, real question is in what level of perfomance you want out of it. People still use it as IFV, tracked APC, recon vehicle. And some convert them to VBIED, lol.

Souldn´t Svinets be BM-59 or 60? Because this one reades "BM-66", what's going on?
