The Object 199 "Ramka", also known as the BMPT "Terminator", is a Russian tank support combat vehicle. Experience from the wars in Afghanistan and Chechnya showed that tanks need a vehicle that can effectively protect them from enemy infantry armed with ATGMs, RPGs, and small arms. A tank cannon is not always suitable for these tasks, and a standard BMP is too vulnerable. Work on creating the "Ramka" began in the mid-1980s, based on the T-72A chassis. After successfully completing state trials in 2006, the vehicle was recommended for serial production on the T-90 base. Initially planned to enter service by early 2010, the BMPT did not enter service until August 2017 due to various reasons. Still, production began in 2011, and the first BMPTs were deployed with the Armed Forces of Kazakhstan.
The BMPT was introduced in Update 2.53 "Line of Contact". The "Terminator" lives up to its name with two 30mm 2A42 autocannons that have an excellent rate of fire and decent AP rounds; four 9M120-1 "Ataka-T" ATGMs for engaging heavily armored targets; two AG-30M grenade launchers for clearing obstacles; an unmanned combat module; and a high-resolution thermal imager. All of these features are built on the T-90 chassis, which provides solid protection and mobility. Compared to the premium variant, it differs in having a five-person crew and a different chassis. Drawbacks of the BMPT include its limited number of ATGMs, suboptimal autocannon ammunition, and low reverse speed.
