High-Precision Systems holding has delivered the first batch of the TM-140 tracked all-terrain vehicles to EMERCOM of Russia. The vehicles are designed for operations in the Far North — Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. The vehicles were made by Kurganmashzavod.
The TM-140 is a snow and swamp-going vehicle specifically designed for off-road conditions. This is a high-mobility vehicle with cross-country capability on up and down slopes up to 30° and floating capability at a speed of 4 km/h. These benefits can expand significantly the opportunities of rescue teams using the vehicles in hard-to-reach areas.
«The snow and swamp-going vehicles made by Kurganmashzavod have traditional hallmarks inherent with Russian vehicles — dependability and easy maintenance. Vehicles of this type have more than once proved their high performance. For example, the all-terrain vehicles underwent field performance testing in the Far North conditions. The test has proved high mobility of the TM-140 as well as dependability and high performance at low temperatures,» said Rostec’s representatives.
The vehicle has a capacity up to 4 tons and a fuel distance of 550 km. Another feature of the ТМ-140 is its modular design. The all-terrain vehicle has a multipurpose flat body suitable for carrying various modules and process equipment, for example, living quarter modules, a repair workshop or boom crane.
