The Terminator is equipped with the supersonic anti-tank missile system Ataka, which is able to reach targets up to 6 kilometers, two 30mm guns that can be used against infantry forces and helicopters, two grenade launchers, and a Kalashnikov submachine gun. The vehicle can reach a speed of 60 kph and is operated by a crew of five. Its design is based on the T-90 tank.

It reminds me of the T-28 and T-35 pre-WWII Russian tanks with multiple guns/turrets. Those failed as the commander could not keep track of all that activity. The Terminator is trying to do too many things. Jack of all trades vehicles end up doing nothing particularly well. The report says it can track three targets at once; I am thinking not really. And, we already know one machine cannot replace 40 infantry on the ground - especially in urban environments. It is a silly thing they built.

Here the designer speaks about the machine:

We will see what changes will be made (if the vehicle lives on) after Syria deployment. It has to be better than BMPs.
BTW that is an old czech bus demolished in the video
