The logistical challenge: if trucks can be transported by tractors, what can the world's largest tractor be transported with?
So this is not a joke. And not a joke. And not some vague plans. This is about our procurement. This is about the largest tank tractor - Oshkosh M1070. Yes! And the photo is not illustrative, it's quite real - this is one of ours. And it comes with a 65-ton bogie.
Why are we getting into this? Why buy one such truck when you can buy three dozen used pickup trucks with that money?
Is AHS Krab aerial work platform cool? Yes, it is!
Is the Panzerhaubitze 2000 a very cool vehicle? It is very cool!
And T-64BV, and PT-91 Twardy, and so on and so forth.
All of this is very, very cool. But all this coolness needs to be quickly transferred from point to point, they need to be transported from position to position. When it comes to moving 10 kilometers, on your own, yes. But what about 100? 200? On your own? No, with a 537 MAZ truck. A truck made in about 72, with a fuel consumption of 150 liters per 100 kilometers and tired eyes of a mechanic trying to put this leaky bucket back together with blue duct tape.
We found a batch of Oshkosh M1070.
This is the largest tank tractor. This is the most powerful tank tractor. This is American quality, excellent condition and tiny mileage. It's a beast designed and sharpened for the transportation of super-heavy armored vehicles. And a set of spare parts that we are also given.
Yesterday we paid an advance. And Petro Poroshenko paid an advance. Now we need to raise a big pile of money to pay for the big trucks. Because... because without us, it's impossible.
Shto-sh Oshkosh...!
