History
During the days of the Soviet rule in Armenia, the Central Sport Club of the Army Yerevan was founded in 1947 in Yerevan. It was commonly known with its Russian abbreviation as CSKA Yerevan.
After the independence of Armenia in 1991, the BKMA made their professional debut in domestic football competitions in the 1994 Armenian First League where they finished 3rd.
In the 1995–96 Armenian First League season, they finished 2nd behind FC Arabkir, to get the opportunity to face Aragats Gyumri in the promotion play-off match in which they beat the Armenian Premier League side and were promoted for the following season. Halfway through the 1997 season, BKMA were folded and all their remaining matches were awarded 3–0 to their opponents, resulting in the 12th and last position and relegation. The club has been inactive ever since.
In 2019, BKMA was revived by the efforts of the Defence minister of Armenia David Tonoyan. The head coach of the team is Rafael Nazaryan, assisted by Varazdat Avetisyan.
Der Verein gewann bisher zweimal den armenischen Pokal (1998 und 2005) und einmal den armenischen Supercup (1998). In der Saison 2003/04 nahm BKMA FC am UEFA-Pokal teil, scheiterte jedoch in der ersten Runde am rumänischen Verein FC Rapid Bukarest.
Die Heimspiele des Vereins finden im Aras Stadion in Jerewan statt, das 5.500 Zuschauern Platz bietet.
BKMA FC ist bekannt für seine starke Jugendarbeit und hat in den letzten Jahren einige talentierte Spieler hervorgebracht, die auch in der armenischen Nationalmannschaft spielen.
