Description
- Available at Rank 2 from a general upgrade at Rank 2.
- Can engage vehicles, buildings and infantry.
- Not very effective against any of these targets.
- Medium range and low view sight.
- ATGM is effective, but not very much.
- Carries up to 3 infantry units.
Usage
- Use it only as bait, or infantry support.
- Most effective against infantry, as it can't do much against armored targets.
- They are vulnerable to Anti-Tank missiles, so keep them behind your infantry.
- ATGMs have a long range, but the BMD-1 has a short view sight, so support it with other units.
- Embark engineers, medics and officers inside it to support surrounding units..
Against Infantry
Reasonable damage.
Against Tanks
Weak.
Against Buildings
Very weak.
How to defend against
- Anti-Tank missiles can take out with one or two hits.
- Anti-Tank Soldier is good for the job, but use them in pairs to disallow the tank to fire back.
- Anti-Tank vehicles like the Humvee TOW and BRDM-2 AT-5 Spandrel can make short work of them.
- Base defenses and garrisoned structures are a good defense against BMD-1s.
