The turret/barrel look small for a MBT, maybe a Russian support armored vehicle
?

its a BMP, not sure what model exactly.

It is a Russian made BMD-1
The BMD airborne amphibious infantry combat vehicle (AAICV) superficially
resembles the BMP, although it is considerably smaller. The BMD-1 can be air
dropped by parachute, and features a suspension that "squats" to fit
into aircraft. It is a full-tracked amphibious vehicle with a BMP-type turret.
Like the BMP, its main armament is a 73-mm smoothbore gun with a 7.62-mm coaxial
machine gun.., and I am totally guessing that it is sitting somewhere in
Afghanistan.
