Screenshot from Krivoruchko's visit to the Military Industrial Company. It looks as though the K-16 Bumerang APC has more armor than before (Photo on the right is the K-17 IFV variant). Looks like it is at least partially designed to handle IEDs better.

A look from the side of the K-16 and presumably K-17 Bumerang. It looks as though the additional armor is an add on feature depending on the scenario. 2/

The line up of vehicles from the Military Industrial Company's Arzamas Machine-Building Plant. From R to L, K-17 Bumerang, BTR-82, VPK-Ural, Atlet, Strela, VPK-233136 Tigr Buggy. Note, how much higher the Bumerang's silhoutte is compared to the BTR-82. 5/

The K-17 Bumerang IFV looks pretty much the same as before. Maybe the K-16 APC variant of the Bumerang is the only one to receive the greater armor. 6/
