BTR-70 is amphibious if your including the PT-76 than add the BRDM series

BRDMs – more scout vehicles than APCs/IFVs, but they do carry troops.

Most, if not all of their tanks can snorkel. Not swimming, but still able to cross on the bottom of shallow rivers with a little prep work.

Yes, BRDMs were primarily Recon/Scout AFVs. But some carried AT or AA weapons, IIRC … link old fart

Even crossing with M113s we had to do a little prep for swimming. Our sister Bn in the ROK sunk one with 3 deaths.

But I only remember seeing pictures of MBTs snorkeling … I think the US ARMY stopped that option ?
