GAZ GARETHING showed a new fire truck based on VALDAYA-12

The head of the press service of the car factory Nikolai Markov shared a picture of a rescue version with a two-cube capacity and a six-seater salon. The firefighter “Valdai-12” can transport fire calculation, two tons of water, as well as everything necessary to eliminate the fire. A spacious composite superstructure is attached to the standard cabin, which allows the personnel to stand in full growth.

For the first time, the Valdai-12 fire truck was shown last summer, but now in Nizhny Novgorod a deeply modernized machine with a different layout of the cabin, a high roof and a rethought body has appeared in Nizhny Novgorod. The tank tank capacity decreased from 2.3 to 2.0 tons.

It turned out that Russian and Chinese in the new Valdai 12 gas in Russia assembled the first Valdai-45 tractor with the domestic diesel engine on sale appeared early gas “Sobol”, which stood in the garage for 20 years

In technology, the firefighter “Valdai-12” does not differ from the usual: under the hood, the 170-horsepower diesel YAMZ-534, the rear bridge is domestic, the original structure, and the front axis is taken from the NEXT vector bus and is distinguished by a 50-degree angle of rotation of the wheels. For special vehicles, such maneuverability is a great advantage. The composite superstructure is special, and the starting cabin is welded and painted at the Gorky Automobile Plant.

There is a need for small fire trucks, because tankers based on KAMAZ-43253 have been produced since 2010 and are morally outdated. Based on the K5 trucks of the Chelny Auto Giant, special equipment is also produced: in Chelyabinsk they made a prototype with a two -row cab, a double -axle chassis and a four -ton capacity.

Where in Moscow to look at rare fire engines?
