Ingame BTR-4 is just BMP-2 on wheels with tall silhouette. They dont use their agl often or effective enough to make impact. They almost never use their atgms, and when they use them, laser warning systems on all enemy armor defeats it (while irl laser warning system shouldn't be triggered by beamriding atgm), and atgm on bmp-2 dont trigger laser warning cause its old style optical guiding. RWS module on BTR-4 ingame modeled as conventional turret (you can see it if you move camera inside hull), line of sight for its weapons comes from hull not from turret, so it cant shoot over cover as it should be able irl using its high mounted rws to advantage. If its weapon was modeled correctly ingame as RWS, it shouldn't for example be destroyed when hit in passenger compartment with ap rounds, cause there is nothing important to penetrate.
Ingame it just boring vehicle overall, which get detected more easily than bmp2 cause its so tall but dont compensate this disadvantage with anything that bmp2 cant do.
Oleg got a reaction from gnarly in Is The BTR-4 The Most Insanely Over Armed Vehicle Ever?
