"Russian, wheeled, armored personnel carrier. Bigger and better equipped than its predecessor, the BTR-90 can withstand the impact of 14.5mm projectiles. " — Battlelog Description

In Battlefield 3, the BTR-90 is one of the four new vehicles that come with the Back to Karkand expansion pack. According to the description, the BTR-90 can withstand the impact of 14.5mm projectiles as well as small arms, grenades, and smoke-screens. It is issued to the Russians as their IFV. BTR-90 is amphibious like other IFVs. The second passenger uses the KORD machine gun on top, other passengers may fire light machine guns with unlimited ammo through the firing ports and still be completely protected. It handles similarly to the LAV-25. Unlike the BMP-2, it cannot turn while stationary since it is wheeled rather than tracked, though it also has better acceleration and handling than the BMP-2

LocationsEdit

• On Gulf of Oman
  • at the Russian Army Base
  • Olive Fort (B)
  • Beach Landing (D)
  • Construction Site (E)
  • Hotel (G)
• On Strike at Karkand
  • Gatehouse (G)
• On Sharqi Peninsula
  • at the RU Base.

However, it only spawns on the Gulf of Oman if you are playing normal Conquest and not Conquest Assault, so if you would like to complete the assignment, you will have to "quit" and go back in to a regular Conquest game. Also, on console, the BTR only spawns at Oman Russia home base and D, but not in any other Oman location or in Karkand or Sharqi.

TriviaEdit
