The Uralvagonzavod concern delivered a batch of IMR-3M engineering mine clearing vehicles to the Russian engineering troops. The IMR-3M mine clearing vehicle is designed to create column routes in difficult terrain for troop advancement, as well as to create passages through minefields. The IMR-3M is based on the T-90 tank chassis and was accepted into service in 1999. The IMR-3M engineering vehicle can be used as an "assault tank," capable of demolishing non-permanent buildings and creating breaches in walls. The IMR-3M is equipped with a universal hydraulic dozer blade and a mine sweeper with an electromagnetic attachment. The IMR-3M also has a telescopic boom that performs several functions: a manipulator, a grapple, a bucket with a forward and reverse shovel, and a scraper-ripper. The IMR-3 is known in the military as an "engineering tank," as it is armored like a tank. Technical information about the IMR-3 is shown on the screen. The IMR-3M engineering vehicle is armed with a 12.7mm machine gun and is operated by two soldiers. The IMR-3M weighs 48 tons and reaches speeds of up to 60 km/h, with a range of up to 500 km.
