# BMP-1M Kliver

Role
: Infantry Fighting Vehicle

## [General information](/md/rv/vehicles/bmp-1m-kliver.md#general-information)

Description
: The **BMP-1M Kliver** is an Infantry Fighting Vehicle that modernizes the **BMP-1** with the **Kliver** turret, armed with a **30mm 2A72** autocannon and **9M133 Kornet** ATGMs. The Kliver upgrade was developed to give legacy BMP-1 hulls improved firepower and fire control without a full hull replacement. The 13.4 t tracked, amphibious vehicle (65 km/h, 7 km/h afloat) retains the **UTD-20** diesel (300 hp, 22.4 hp/t) and a crew of three plus six passengers.
The turret provides a stabilizer, missile approach warning system, laser rangefinder, FCS with lead and tracking, and Gen 2 thermals; armament includes the 30 mm gun, **7.62mm PKT**, and Kornet rounds. Smoke is provided by an engine smoke system. The combination of ATGM and modern optics makes the BMP-1M Kliver a capable upgrade for the ageing BMP-1 fleet.
