I was scrolling through You tube and came across this post, I didn't know were to put it, and because it's about russia, and has many vehicles in it that we know of military use (here civil usage), I was thinkin' I'd share this one with you all
great to see how bad a "road" can get, and whaét you'd need to get from A to B in those conditions
also shows there are multiple possibilities in building a "non military" version of , for example, the Ural truck
The blue one stuck in the mud has the Ural side intake, others have the tubular one on the front fender, seems those oldies are still in action

Yes, that's it

Try to find through russian sites МАЗ 537 truck or газ 69. You'll find lots of civilian exemplars

(MAZ 537 KZKT URAGAN)





















Thanks for the video!

cheers

Amazing video.. great to see just how nasty the mud in Russia can be ,,dont know where those guys were working but what ever its name is it should be changed to the Official Russian Tow Cable Test Center

I wonder how many tow cables they go thru a year ,i'll bet its a heap cause you know how serious it is when the Ural 4320 can't get thru and those things have amazing off road ability and of course the final nail in the coffin so to speck is the bulldozer getting stuck lol

Oh what a brilliant place
