Now there's a serious truck and the good basis for a wrecker.

After their release of the Kraz 6446 truck/MAZ 5247G trailer/T-62 combo kit, you'd think they would have thrown in a tank with this one! A T-72 would have fit nicely.

With an allowed gross combination weight of around 48 ton the T-72 would be a severe overload ....

The T-55 as suggested by Takom is also an overload.

Gross trailer weight is 27.5 ton and the included trailer has an empty weight of 18 ton which leaves less than 10 tons for the load. There are probably some margins in these limits but I doubt that an MBT (of any kind) would be within the practical limits.
A BMP-1, -2 or -3 at 13 to 15 ton could be possible ...

"The KraZ-6446 is intended to haul semi-trailers. It can operate on all kinds of roads and in off-road condition. Fifth-wheel permissible vertical load is 11.4 t. Vehicle can tow a semi-trailer with a maximum weight of 23 t on all kinds of roads and up to 34 t on hard surface roads."

Oh Robin...


Yes ... I know .... I'm famous for raining on the parades of others.... bad habit I suppose

On the other hand: Imagine meeting some "know-it-all" at some meeting or model show who goes on a rant about how incorrect your load is ...

Cheers / Robin
