Hey folks, I have an odd question, I am building a diorama of a BMP-2 engaging a target. When a BMP-2 fires the 30mm cannon are the spent shells ejected out of the vehicle or do they remain inside? Thanks for any help.

Brian,
I dont mena to be dense, but do they side eject ouside of the vehicle? I was thinking it might be like a ZSU-23-4.

Thx, Gary for setting me straight. Knew it was outside, didn't know it was front eject.
