Innovative MGT can replace the "motolega" in the Russian army
The machine was developed in Ukraine in the design bureau of the Kharkov Tractor Plant, where it was produced for many years.
“It is interesting that the MT-LB was adopted almost simultaneously with the Kharkov a tank T-64 However, unlike the promoted “64-ki”, the “motoliga” became a real hit. Replacing it was very difficult. It is difficult to such an extent that after the Union collapsed, its production had to be recreated and deployed already on the territory of the Russian Federation - in Murom and Rubtsovsk, ”the material says.
Then there was talk of creating a replacement. Closest to the success of multi-purpose tracked transporter MGT, developed by LLC "Special projects of mechanical engineering" (Moscow).
The developer’s website states the following:
“The company is working to create a multi-purpose tracked carrier (MGT) fully adapted for use in the extreme conditions of the Arctic. At present, the stage of calculations and mathematical modeling of the machine has been completed.
MGT is an innovative machine in which are implemented:
- hybrid power plant (GEM);
- Electromechanical transmission (EMT);
- intellectual complex of onboard equipment and control system;
- possibility of remote control;
- rubber caterpillar.
The key components of EMT and GEM (traction electric motors DVIT-110, traction generator GWIT-210, control system) were developed by LLC "Special Mechanical Engineering Projects". In MGT there are no knots and units of foreign production. Analogues of MGT in Russia does not exist.
