TL;DR Summary

Ukraine's prototype armored fighting vehicle, the Ukrainian Terminator, is almost ready for testing or combat. It combines the hull of a captured Russian T-62 tank with the turret and autocannon of a BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle, and is heavily armored with reactive armor. Unlike its Russian equivalent, it lacks a passenger compartment for infantry dismounts and is intended as a support vehicle to escort tanks and fighting vehicles. The Ukrainians could potentially build more Terminators using captured T-62s, of which they have already converted some into engineering vehicles.
