I found this pics from Ukraine:

the first one is likely based on a 2s7 pion chassis, but I can't find the exact version? and the second can be bmp terminator without the rocket launcher?
could you help me please with identifying those two AFV?
many thanks in advance.

cheers,

Could the first image be showing a BREM-1 recovery vehicle ?

The 2S7 chassis has a significant overhang at the front

the first one might be BREM, but my 2nd guess with the 2S7 is based only on the wheels. thank you for quick reply, still waiting for the hint on the 2nd one.

The chassis used for SA-4 Ganef has seven road wheels so maybe it is some other vehicle based on that chassis.

Maybe the GMZ-3 tracked minelayer ;-)

The GMZ-2 (and GMZ-1) has a "smooth" front and
not the "ribbing" shown in the image above

#1 BREM-1

Here's a view of the BREM-1 from almost the same angle of view :



#2 GMZ-3. This vehicle is apparently fitted with a front spade.
