BVP-2K

The BVP-2K infantry command vehicle is a device of the mechanized battalion commander designed to manage and coordinate combat activities within the mechanized battalion and to organize cooperation in the mechanized regiment. It is equipped with an extended connecting device, means for orientation and an additional source of electrical energy AB-1-P/30-M1.

External visible differences from the standard BVP-2 can be seen in the back of the device. These include the sealing of the side guns, the location of the three-meter antenna and the installation of a semi-telescopic antenna with a length of 11 m (in the transport position) in the right rear of the vehicle.

Behind the driver's station is the 1st officer's station equipped with a folding plane of the navigation device. The rear of the vehicle is divided into two parts. On the right side there is a radio operator's workplace, which is equipped with a work table, a stand with R-173, R-134 radio stations, a DO-2K remote control cabinet, a field telephone TP-25, R-012M selective challenge device and antenna tilt controller. In the left part there is the 2nd officer's workplace equipped with a work table, a two-part board for working with a map, a case for maps and a lockable box for documents.

The development of the BVP-2K vehicle was started at the end of the eighties as a successor to the BVP-1K. The BVP-2K prototype successfully passed control and military tests. In 1990, the project was stopped. It was not introduced into the armament of the Czechoslovak army. Several BVP-2Ks were probably part of a delivery made between 1995 and 1996, allegedly numbering 54 BVP-2s for the Algerian army.
