The ZBD-08 is a Chinese revised and improved version of the Soviet/Russian BMP-3. First production version, the ZBD-04, entered service with Chinese army in 2004. An improved ZBD-08 followed a couple of years later. This new infantry fighting vehicle is produced in large numbers for the Chinese army. Even though the ZBD-08 externally resembles the BMP-3, vehicle has been redesigned considerably. It has a revised layout with engine at the front and troop compartment at the rear. Chinese designers managed to eliminate a number of drawbacks of the Russian BMP-3, such as cramped troop compartment and cramped exit, though at a cost of reduced amphibious capabilities. Also the ZBD-08 is a much newer vehicle, which uses modern electronics and more modern technologies, such as improved sights and fire control system. So even though the ZBD-08 and BMP-3 carry similar armament and both vehicles have similar level of protection, Chinese IFV is clearly superior. The ZBD-08 has a welded steel armor hull. Add-on modular armor can be fitted for a higher level of protection. It is claimed that front arc withstands 30 mm armor-piercing rounds. Sides withstand 14.5 mm rounds. Side skirts were added for improved protection. Also vehicle may be fitted with indigenous active laser protection system. This IFV retains complete turret of the BMP-3, which is now license-built in China. It has similar firepower and in these terms outperforms most current IFVs. Its 100 mm gun is completed with an autoloader has an effective range of 4 km. This gun can fire both ordinary projectiles and launch anti-tank guided missiles. It is compatible with Chinese anti-tank guided missiles and poses serious threat to main battle tanks. The coaxial 30 mm cannon has an effective range of 1.5-2 km. There is also a coaxial 7.62 mm machine gun. Also the ZBD-08 has improved sights and fire control system. Vehicle is fully amphibious. However on water it is not as good as the original BMP-3.
