In Russia, resumed production of "fire tanks"

11

For the first time in two years, the Omsk Machine-Building Plant, part of the Uralvagonzavod, shipped another batch of special fire engines on the order of the Russian Defense Ministry. This view equipment Designed to contain and extinguish fires, as well as conduct rescue operations in particularly difficult conditions. The design of the new PSD was finalized based on the results of the previous series, which entered service in 2017.

The Russian "fire tank" is a unique development, which was based on units and assemblies of domestic T-72 and T-80. Weight SPM does not exceed 65 tons. On board is 25 m³ of water and extinguishing agent with a delivery range of up to 100 meters. The rescue vehicle is designed for 3 people. At the same time, the crew is reliably protected from adverse external factors by an armored cockpit and a life support system, which makes it possible to successfully carry out rescue operations in especially difficult conditions.



Developed in 2012, the machine was accepted for supply in 2015. Since 2016, the serial production of "fire tanks" at the Omsktransmash plant started. In 2019, unique SPMs demonstrated their capabilities at the Center-2019 exercises.

According to the General Director of the manufacturing plant Igor Lobov:

Our designers managed to create a universal machine for conducting rescue operations at arsenals, warehouses and storage bases for explosive substances.

    "Firefighter" tank? Well, well ... something this "unit" resembles a floating conveyor of the PTS type ... however, the PTS-4 was also manufactured using "components and assemblies of the T-72 and T-80 tanks ..."

    - All this ... of course ... well ...
    - Eh, but for Omsk production facilities that are capable of solving much larger and global state Russian defense tasks ... - such a minimally narrow and minimally small-volume "production specialization" ...
    - "The mountain gave birth to a mouse" ... is all that can be said ...

    Fine! An irreplaceable thing. Once the production of equipment was resumed, then it was still not bad to restore all those fire units that were previously disbanded.

      I agree. I have not seen these new machines, but I have also seen Soviet ones - a very impressive technique. For the first time at first I didn't even understand what kind of "moon rover" was rushing along the road ... And this was a fire tank. smile

    It is necessary to restore forestry / and others too /. But nation-wide rulers can only destroy - in the name of the invisible and imperceptible hand of the market ...

      Something I have not read from the Liberal posts that Trump is all about ......: California is on fire, everything is gone, "Terminator" was left homeless. The US authorities cannot do anything, etc. But for the grand-eaters it is important to throw more crap on Russia, otherwise you can lose money.

      The slogan from the series "it is better to be rich and healthy than poor and sick." It is clear that there are problems, but you want to say that in the USSR without the "hand of the market" everything was wonderful, transparent and as efficient as possible? Has it just been destroyed? Or maybe they are just starting to rake up what was torn apart after the collapse of the Union? Derbanit and "privatize" quickly and easily, but the restoration takes decades ...

        You want to say that in the USSR without the "hand of the market" everything was wonderful, transparent and as efficient as possible? This is now just destroyed.

        For the good of whom destroyed?
        But it's not over yet. There is still a lot that can be "privatized". Finally, instead of "evil" Soviet fire tanks, it was possible to build "good" democratic fluffy purely Russian cars.
        Why would it not be easier to buy or exchange somewhere?

        just starting to rake that after the collapse of the Union razderbanili?

        And why do you need something?
        It was possible to further develop, the material and technical base was enormous. It was necessary for everyone to work, in the first number - for the executive authorities, and the ideological component had to be slowly rebuilt.
        And they all reduced to one, poking money in their pockets and selling everything to the same Americans.

          It could be. I am for. But this is not a question for me. Now at least I would punish those guilty of all this, but ... apparently, too, not all FOR ...

    But the T-72 and T-80 have six rollers, and the special fire truck has seven.

      Definitely. However, the article does not say a word that the T-72 / -80 base was used, but only

      units and assemblies.
