The cannon is equipped with an auto loader, allowing for consistent 6 second reloads. As this tank lacks any ATGM systems, the turret speed has been improved over the base BMP-1 by a small margin. However, the cannon has a few flaws. First, the ballistic performance of the rounds is mediocre, at 665 m/s for the PG-9 HEAT and 290 m/s for the OG-9 HE, making long range shots all the more difficult to land. Second, the gun depression is limited to only -4°, similar to other Russian tanks in the Swedish Tech Tree. This will make a change of play-style necessary, as most Swedish tanks have good gun depression.

Description

The Pansarbandvagn 501 was the Swedish designation for the BMP-1, acquired from Germany after the fall of the Soviet Union. In defense decisions 92, Sweden wanted to invest a portion of the military funding to mechanized infantry, during this decision they decided to buy 433 vehicles of different BMP-1 models. These Pbv 501 were sent to the Czech Republic to be modified to Swedish standards and would be used until 2010, when the Pbv 501 were sold to the Czech Republic which later sold them to Iraq.

The Pbv 501 was introduced in Update "Kings of Battle". Compared to other BMP-1s, it lacks the ATGMs most BMP vehicles are equipped with in-game, giving it a limited ability to counter heavier armoured vehicles at distance. However, it is still equipped with its 73 mm 2A28 gun making it familiar weapon to use for those who are experienced with BMP-1 vehicles. Having thin armour makes this vehicle an easy target for tank cannons but also autocannons and heavy machine guns, making it a vehicle better suited for ambush and supporting roles.

Describe armour protection. Note the most well protected and key weak areas. Appreciate the layout of modules as well as the number and location of crew members. Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpful for survival in combat? If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

Just like the BMP-1, the Pbv 501 is armed with the 2A28 main cannon. However, it lacks any sort of ATGM systems compared to the BMP-1, which severely reduces its overall offensive capabilities.

The PG-9 HEAT will primarily be your main shell in combat. Capable of penetrating up to 300 mm of armour, a well placed shot on the enemy tanks will usually result in most critical components being damaged. However, care must be taken as the Pbv 501 lacks any sort of stabilizer, which severely reduces the chances of hitting a target while going full speed.

The OG-9 HE is almost useless at this BR, as most tanks at this have closed rooftops. It should only be used for attacking lightly armoured targets, nothing more.

The cannon is equipped with an auto loader, allowing for consistent 6 second reloads. As this tank lacks any ATGM systems, the turret speed has been improved over the base BMP-1 by a small margin. However, the cannon has a few flaws. First, the ballistic performance of the rounds is mediocre, at 665 m/s for the PG-9 HEAT and 290 m/s for the OG-9 HE, making long range shots all the more difficult to land. Second, the gun depression is limited to only -4°, similar to other Russian tanks in the Swedish Tech Tree. This will make a change of play-style necessary, as most Swedish tanks have good gun depression.

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Low silhouette
  • HEAT ammunition

Cons:

  • No ATGMs unlike other BMP-1s
  • Thin armour

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
