The armoured amphibious vehicles of BMM type are intended to search, collect, and evacuate the wounded personnel and victims of natural/industrial calamities, as well as to provide the first aid on the move in remote areas with harsh terrain. The vehicles are based on the BTR-80 APC chassis and retain its basic characteristics. Depending on medical equipment installed, the BMM-1, BMM-2, and BMM-3 modifications are available.

The BMM-1 evacuation vehicle is designed to search, collect, and evacuate wounded personnel from the battlefield and other areas with mass casualties, and render them first aid.

The BMM-2 vehicle is intended to operate as the battalion mobile medical station.

The BMM-3 operates as the mobile dressing station with the team of doctors and a bandaging set.

The basic design of all modifications comprises a basic sanitary set. Up to four heavy casualties can be carried on stretchers inside the hull, and additional two outside on the stretchers placed under engine compartment roof.

The equipment and medicine set ensures the delivery of first aid at stationary position and on the move. The vehicle has a folding tent to be attached to the vehicle at any side door. Up to 12 casualties can be accommodated in the tent.
