      Kind of depends how its defined. But something like a Caterpillar 797 is about twice as large as this unit.
      Then there is modular load carriers or SPM. They are configurable to carry pretty much what ever you can think of. There is multiple times where they been used to carry 1000s of tons of buildings in one go.
      But of cause, they are modular, so its not one vehicle, but maybe 50 or 100 connected together.
      Then there is stuff like the LARC-LX that is.. slightly smaller, but only have 4 wheels.
      So it kind of depends how you define a similar vehicle. but a cat 797 is for sure larger

      Mzkt can carry that.
      Dumptruck wise for mining they got the Belaz , 793,000 lb curb weight. Its actually the largest and most powerfull mining truck on the world. And its built in large numbers ever since its introduction.

    There are vehicles we aren't exposed to. If someone were to spend some time on RUclips long enough they'll see for themselves. For instance, the spheracle wheel from I robot is a real working design. As well as the car to go with it. It's not in production for many reasons. One being one wheel costs more than a super car. IT WAS AT A CAR EXPO. Not many people noticed it though. And vehicles like this that no one knows about is no surprise.

      @@VisioRacer OK, understood now:). US sizes which are usually used for big and off road tires are diameter x width - rim size, and whenever saying a tire is “xx” inch it is customary to refer to the diameter. As long as I have your attention, your truck videos where you delve into technical details other than just the engine are the most interesting to me personally. If you could do other videos talking about technical subjects other than just the engines that would be superb. Keep up the good work, enjoying your channel.

      This is the dumbest thing you could possibly say.
      Before the revolution Russia was the poorest country in the world and after only 30 years they literally beat the Natzee's and were a superpower to rival the US.
      Socialism (not communism, not like you know the difference anyway) highly encourages thinking, planning and education.
      There's a reason the first thing that happens in socialist countries is anti-illiteracy programs and free education.
      The Soviet citizens were some of the best educated people on the planet, which might be why they were leaders in medicine, space travel, music and art, cinematography etc etc
      China are going the same way but doing even better, as of 2020 they eradicated poverty, their home ownership rate is the highest in the world, they're the leading innovators in tech, green energy and electric cars for example, almost like you know nothing about either, you uneducated muppet.
      The huge irony here is that you're told to think that ignorant shit by the media, yet you've never seen any proof of it and here you are, proving you've gobbled it like it was a 3 michelin star meal.
