DT-30's and Bv206 pretty much came into life at the same time. Bv206 and DT-30 differ quite a bit in design but both utilize the same principle of the Bv202. I'd say they are both derivatives of the Bv202 design. And I'm not talking about the design as in "looks" but rather the design as the over all composition of two separately tracked units with a linkage between them.
While it is true that *the Swedes were indeed first,* the Soviet didn't just copy the design, they improved upon it. Esentially, the *Soviet* were better at making them *bigger and better,* and thus much more useful for heavy industry, like the oil industry. The Vityaz DT-30 means it was a 30 tonne model, that's a whole lot bigger than the little Bandvagn 202! On a sidenote, "Vityaz" means "Knight" or "Paladin", and it was meant to be a vigilant defender of the eastern marshlands of Russia.
I saw two BV206s for sale recently; one was £30,000 GBP and the other was £48,000 GBP - both with flat bed trailers. The more expensive of the two was heavily refurbished.
OK, I guess that I'm not understanding something. With all of those tracked "cars"/trailers, are they powered or not? When they say articulated, I am thinking of one whole unit.
BV 202 developed in early 1960 rest is all copys even THE famus Hägglunds 206/2062 😉 the last version used MB diesel engine but the most were build on the Ford colonge 2.8 L V6 engine Good in Swedish -30C cool Winter Times.👍
I tried watching the video but the pictures flashed through so quickly and where so distorted buy some sort of filter that I couldn't even see them fail fail fail
I agree. The production team, for this video, must have consumed exhaust fumes. Only good aspect is to do ones own follow up at home Web sites for each product. Keep trying chaps.
Your video fails to explain that both units of the many articulated vehicles have all their tracks powered by the engine in the forward unit through the articulated coupling. Such a system provides more than just extra traction, but aids in steering and climbing through extremely rough terrain, wetlands and snow/ice. Single unit track vehicles get stuck in situations which articulated vehicles can "wriggle" out of.
Pity they nerfed the hell out of the Ripsaw. Current version cant actually manage 0-60, top speed is 55mph. On the upside it doesn't habitually get stuck in mud and snow anymore due to its wider tracks.
Most of these machines are offshoots of other flex track machines. Nodwell and Foremost Industries in Calgary has been making these machines long before the ones pictured here, as far as I recall I was driving them back in 1967. Foremost has a twenty-ton model that could carry drilling rigs into the muskeg areas of Canada's north.
No one mentioning the eye hurting amount of awful cuts...? Please chill out and stop repeating yourself so much on what's similar... tell us the differences...
Indeed, Bombardier made their first Snow Coach back in 1952, they were conceptually inspired by military half tracks from WWII, but made with civilian use in mind. Bombardier were also involved with early types of Snowmobiles that looks more like the ones we have today, during the 1960's. So yeah, they were involved, even if they were not the very first, they certainly helped the early development. 😀
@@Grumpy_old_Boot ok i saw pictures of a long bodied machine on two sets of tracks, like an oilfield bed truck, way up in the tundra, bogging along in six feet of peat moss you couldn't walk on.
@@alancadieux2984 Ah Yeah, that could have been a Bombardier Muskeg carrier, or possibly a PRINOTH tracked vehicle. PRINOTH made a lot of industrial machines. Nordwell is also a contender. In fact, there has been quite a few companies that have made tracked vehicles, that have disappeared over the years, or bought up by others. Alternatively, an old soviet Vityaz DT-30, those are incredibly capable machines, and a very few even made it to America/Canada!
@@Grumpy_old_Boot nope. It was bombardier, i worked with an old man, who is still alive, but many years ago, he was hired by bombardier as the test pilot, if anyone wanted a demo, he was the driver. Showed me pictures. We worked oilfield together.
Old 80s BV 206 driver here (3 tours). It was a lot of fun back then in Norway. ... I like the look of the Beowulf.
I've driven the Volvo BV 202 in Norway on exercises with AMF(L) it was the BV 206 predecessor. Great fun and ould go anywhere.
Drove the BV206 when on manouvers in Norway with Canadian Military, awesome piece of kit.

BV-206. Most proven. Has tons of different versions from different countries depending on what you intend to do with them.
I drive those in the finnish army and theu are a lot of fun and really capable. I haven't yet been able to get one stuck!
@@outandabout259 US Army uses them in Alaska, excellent vehicles.
I want one of each. Or an rv version of the Beowulf and the Ripsaw to play in.
they used ripsaw in the new Mad Max movie. i've read that everyone on the movie set hated it cause it was always breaking down
The best equipment OUR money can buy...
Most modern articulated tracked vehicles are copys of the Hägglunds BV206.
sure but that does not make them any less capable tell me what tank is not copied from another or jet fighter
@@Karl-Benny Uhhmm.. Did i say that? I simply stated that the Hägglunds BV 206 (or really it is the BV202) is the role model for most modern tracked articuleted vehicles.
I think the German Steyr RSO of WW2 was a similar idea
@@dietmarholtz188 Apart from being not articulated. Although hydraulics were not available then and the RSO was really a war product. The Germans faced a problem and they needed a quick solution. Actually they copied the idea it from a Russian tractor.
Steyr has been at that time of the 2nd WW an AUSTRIAN Company, NOT a german one! But of course they delivered to the foreign force. Rover
Love all of them. They are formidable off road vehicals
DT30 can go through the most in this list. But the BV206 is the most practical.
Must have vehicles for search and rescue during blizzards
Iirc DT-30 is the only one originally built and capable of crossing over the whole of Antarctica. It's a beast.
They're so sick, but they get about 0.78 mpg, or about 100 km per 300 liters. Ouch! Still, that thing will go almost anywhere.
The DT-30 VITYAZ, I think it`s the best!
and that's the large version, there's also the DT-10 an -20
Excellent choice
It all started in Sweden 1964 with Volvo BM Bv202. Then came Hägglunds Bv206. Also from Sweden. I mean where else from? Then the rest.
BERU 58 Bombadier muskeg tractor. 1949. Also Nodwell’s from 1950’s. From Canada...of course.
You are right, and The BV206 also came with a wide spectrum of variants, both military and civilian.
@@peterwright4647 sure but they arent articulated
@@einar8019 Around 50 variants have been produced.
Actually before that. Prototyping in 1958. First drive tests in 1959 and series production runs in 1964

Vityaz dt-30(Russia) its the most capable terrain truck in the world by far...nothing beat that beast.

UK used the Bronco as well as the Bv-S 10 Viking?

Ill take two :P

They should make these more available for civilians! 🖒
4 or 6 of those is actually the exact same vehicle just a different cab on them for different country and uses
Bv S10
Hagglunds BV 206. In snow it is harder to beat than you probably would think. Weak point is its driver. I used to be one.
I grew up lusting over Unimogs, until I saw the Vityaz DT-30, WOW !
PS: Half the machines here are just smaller copies of the DT-30.

Does the 3344 have rock /gravel crossing capabilities? Is there a civilian version? Top speed?
Awesome video
That RIPSAW EV3 is really something. so fancy
I think I like the voyager the best, it just looks right, practical and if it’s uncomplicated as stated then that’s another plus.
Wish it would show the inside of some of these
It would be great to see them go up against each other in competition, im sure they are all capable but there can be one winner.

really interesting - but please, please drop the stomalk-churning transitions?
An unbiased team should take the best parts from each and create the ultimate one .
yes and make a realy muddy and hard track they are made to go to see who do it the best
Bandvagn and Sisu NASU all day.
" Off-road capability is the key to success ", so that's what was missing in my answers in the Financial Reporting Quiz....
Does anyone know if the rear part of these trailered units are powered or just along for the ride
the rear units are powered, the engine in the front unit usually powers both.
@@blockstacker5614 thank you for the insight sir. Awesome machines

Is there a driveshaft powering the trailer tracks?
On most yes.
If you're using it to move the space shuttle, you really only have one option, smartie-pants!
BV-206 & Voyager I would be happy with either. Talk about an awesome hunting rig to get out into the mountainous back country.
Russia- hey let's build a quad track vehicle
Every other country on earth- hey that's cool let's make our own version!
Nah the russians actually copied the swedish bv202, which started production 1964 and the classic bv206 which has been in service since 1980.
