Special car GAZ-2330 - new tiger


Russia is producing a vehicle remarkably similar to the armored
version of the hummer (the M1114 model). The Russian vehicle is
called Tigr (Tiger) and is based on the hummer-like vehicle, the
Gaz-2330. Like the M1114, the Tigr weighs five tons, carries a crew
of four, and a load of about a ton (or an additional five men, if
configured for that). The Tigr costs $88,000 each, compared to
$145,000 for the M1114. Russia is getting two dozen Tigrs this
year, for Interior Ministry troops operating in dangerous areas
like Chechnya (where roadside bombs and ambushes occur
regularly.)
The Solid design, high passability and reliability of the car
GAZ-2330 allow to use him(it) in any, even the most heavy
condition. All, to whom was brought control the car, remain under
strong impression from earthy remains and sought-after quality this
without exaggeration to say "ferocious" machines. The Car in alike
degree causes the alive interest as beside managers enterprise to
oil branch, so and beside representatives military
department.
The Specialist OAO "GAS" is designed car of the special purpose,
which satisfies the most high requirements on rational design both
externals forms, and interior for cars of such class. The New
development answers all working requirements on reliability,
safety, ecologies. On car is installed turbo air-cooled diesel
Cummins V-180 (USA) with mechanical gearbox. The Deskside of the
car provides installing the more powerful engines by volume 6,0
litres as russian, so and foreign production. New car GAZ-2330,
equipped independent (torsion) by lavaliere all travell about,
capable to move both on road of the general use, and off road. The
High passability of the car promote the full drive travell about,
increased road bright spot and automatic regulation of the pressure
in bus. The Car is equiped with hydra by amplifier helmsmen
management. Cargo-carrying capacity - 1,5 tons. The integer of the

Armored vehicle GAZ 3937 Vodnik (GAZ 39371)

The GAZ 39371 Vodnik is the Russian answer to the Hum-Vee. "Russian
"Hummer"" is the nickname given by people to one of the latest
products of the Arzamas automobile plant - the high-mobility
multipurpose vehicle GAZ-3937 "Vodnik". The purpose of the vehicle,
as well as its appearance resemble those of its American "brother",
but "Vodnik" surpasses the "American" in many parameters!
GAZ 3937 "Vodnik" can, for instance, easily overcome water
barriers; it has a water-displacing hermetic hull, a 4x4-type
chassis, independent suspensions, a centralized system of
tire-pressure control and a 475-mm ground clearance - all the
necessary features of such a vehicle. GAZ-3937 Vodnik was supposed
to be a military-issue vehicle, but time showed that it would find
employment in civil life: such a automobile is perfect for use in
limited-access areas. The standard undercarriage with a cab can be
optionally complemented by different modules with various number of
passenger seats and cargo compartments. The seating capacity of
GAZ-3937 is 10 people.

The automobiles GAZ-3937 "Vodnik" and its modification GAZ-39371
with allocation of crew ahead represents high-mobile vehicle
intended for creation on its base of automobiles of special
assignment.
Basis of a construction is modular circuit of construction of the
automobile. The welded tank of the automobile has two removable
units - front and back. The size limited to the front unit,
includes power bay and bay of handle, disjointed hermetic
partition.
The back unit represents useful size of the automobile, which can
be used for transportation of the people and cargoes, mounting of
special equipment and mobile installations. The main advantage of
the automobile consists that, due to quick disconnect connection of
the back unit and basic flange of tank, the fast replacement of
different units on one automobile even in field conditions is
possible. Thus, having a number of functional units, one the
chassis can fulfil functions of several automobiles:
Transportation of the people;
Transportation of cargoes and process equipment in remote
areas;
Execution of functions of technological computers of the fuel and
energy complex.
Transportation of inhabited blocks and other municipal units;
The automobile is calculated on maintenance under following
conditions:
Speed of a wind up to 98 ft/s;
Temperature of air from a minus 49 °F up to plus 122 °F;
Relative humidity of air up to 98 % at temperature thus plus 77
°F;
In conditions of high-mountainous district with height above a sea
level up to 14800 ft and with possibility of overcoming of
saddle-points of height up to 15300 ft.
The automobile has a disabled drive of front sprockets,
hydroamplifier of steering handle, system of heating and
conditioning. The installation of a radio and internal
intercommunication set is possible.
Independent torsion suspension bracket, system of the centralized
swapping of buses, the smooth bottom, large road gleam provide the
sure movement of the automobile in conditions of impassability. The
hermetic tank allows to overcome water barrier, right in water..
The automobile has a high scale of unification with automobiles of
operating production GAZ factory, that will provide deadlines by
delivering on serial production.
