After previously being reviewed about Russian rantis using wooden armor in
their military operations in Ukraine, now they are still from the same type of
vehicle, namely the Kamaz 5350 truck, which looks to appear in the "Mad Max"
style.
Various armor plates were added around the truck body, the purpose was none
other than to be able to withstand the brunt of projectiles when the vehicle
had to enter the battlefield.
However, there is something unique about the Kamaz Mad Max, apparently this
'armored' truck also has the ability to attack, which is a PSU (Air Attack
Repellent) ZSU-23-2 23 mm caliber Kanon placed on the body.
The doctrine of deploying cannons produced by ZSU-23-3 has been expanded,
which previously focused on point air defense (hanud) systems, now ZSU-23=2
can be deployed to support infantry troop movements, especially in fire
support missions.
The Kanon ZU-23-2, also known as the 23 mm caliber ZUR, is produced by Zakłady
Mechaniczne Tarnów (ZMT). This type of Kanon has also been operated by Arhanud
TNI AD. Besides being sold in the towed version, this canon is also commonly
placed on the BMP-2 chain-wheel armored vehicle platform.
In general, this Kanon has a maximum vertical firing range of 2,000 meters,
and a horizontal firing range of 3,000 meters.
While the Mad Max truck in this photo is the Kamaz 5350 Mustang 6×6, which is
included in the general utility truck group. The Kamaz 5350 has a carrying
capacity of 6 tons, and has the ability to tow trailers or artillery.
These military trucks can carry various shelters or container type loads. A
standard troop/cargo platform has drop sides, a drop tailgate and a
bow-removable tarp.
The Kamaz 5350 is powered by the KamAZ-740.13.260 turbocharged diesel engine
with 260 hp. This engine meets EURO II emission requirements. The engine is
also equipped with a cold weather starter device and can be started at
temperatures up to -50 °C. The vehicle has full-time all-wheel drive and is
equipped with a central tire inflation system.
The maximum speed of the Kamaz 5350 is 100 km per hour, with a full fuel tank
capacity, this truck can travel up to 1,000 km. From the specifications, the
truck, which was launched in 2003, has a length of 7.85 meters, a width of 2.5
meters and a height of 3.29 meters. The overall vehicle weight is 9.2 tons.
