Russian BMD-4 airborne fighting vehicles will be parachute-dropped in trials


via Russian Aviation.
BMD-4 airborne fighting vehicles will be parachute-dropped from military transport aircraft in course of trials in the Ryazan region.

Preparation for the landing operation will be held in one of the Tula Airborne formations. The air-dropping will be conducted in the Ryazan region.

After being dropped from Il-76 aircraft, the vehicles will be tested. The landing trials will be held for the first time. More than 20 trials will be performed.
As much as I think the 82nd is after at least a  portion of our mission set, I can't help but cheer them on when it comes to developing a mechanized airborne force.
