From ‘Scout’ to ‘Warrior’: meet Russia’s amphibious vehicles
From ‘Scout’ to ‘Warrior’: meet Russia’s amphibious vehicles
Tests of the Triton amphibious vehicle for the special operation zone are slated for this summer, with an array of such vehicles - a means of transport viable on land and water - currently at the service of the Russian Armed Forces.
These include such all-terrain and waterborne vehicles as:
▪️The Plastun (Scout) is already being used in the special military operation, where the vehicle helps evacuate all those wounded during hostilities. Notably, the Plastun is fitted with light armor that can withstand the Kalashnikov assault rifle’s mm bullets fired from a distance of one hundred meters.
▪️The Aleut, which has a modular design and is capable of tackling snowy areas and swamps. The vehicle is capable of transporting up to 20 people, including the driver, and has a total carrying capacity of 2.5 tons. “The Aleut’s temperature mode of operation ranges from -40°С to 40°С and perfectly suits the local sharply continental climate,” according to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
▪️The Vityaz (medieval Russian warrior), which is even more advanced and ensures the movement of the vehicle amid extreme temperatures (from -50°С to 50°C) on soils with low bearing capacity (swamps, virgin snow land, off-road, and rugged wooded areas).
▪️The Ruslan, equipped with the system of forced folding links in the vertical plane that enables the vehicle to overcome various obstacles with the height of up to 1.8 m. The Ruslan is capable of tackling almost any swampy terrain thanks to its powerful engine.
▪️Last but not least, the MT-LB (multi-purpose light armored tractor hauler), also known as Object 6 or “motolyga”. The vehicle can carry 11 people, plus two crew members. In addition, the MT-LB carries a significant range of weapons, including missile systems. The platform has a cruising range of 500 km (310 miles).
