Gameplay[]

  • One advantage of the dual barrel system is its ability to keep an ATGM loaded in the 100mm rifled barrel while using the 30mm autocannon, which can be highly useful for engaging heavily armored vehicles.

Gunner view[]

The Gunner HUD is mostly focused on the top. Four large numbers show the distance to the target. The number at the bottom-left shows the remaining ammo =. The Chinese character at the bottom-right shows the type of weapon selected.

  • 穿 (chuān in Pinyin) is Armor-Piercing.
  • 杀 (shā) is High Explosive. Both the 30mm HE and the 100mm HE use the same character.
  • 并 (bìng) is the 5.8 mm coaxial machine gun.
  • 烟 (yān) is smoke launcher.
  • 导 (dǎo) is ATGM.

The gunner reticles are similar to that of the BMD-4M.

  • There are 3 concentric circles labeled 65, 220, and 800. These are probably the turning limits of the ATGM.
  • There are 3 sets of bullet-drop compensation lines, labeled "5.8", "30", and "100", corresponding to the different gun calibers.

Commander view[]

The commander is offered a stabilized optics system. The reticle contains a stadimetric range finder for objects 2.7 meters tall.
