How is APC.

Not so long ago, on the road Krasnodar-Novorossiysk was in a terrible traffic jam. The reason for this was a very long column of military vehicles which were a lot of interesting things. But my attention on the day attracted newcomers (or polished to a high gloss) APCs. There were so many. After twenty minutes, the conversion lost.

Further, a body with bolted wheels, stand up to the assembly line.



Inside the case lay mains and install the unit.



The conveyor. No automation. No robots. All handles. There are no overhead power lines, and thus the pneumatic tools. The only thing that he saw the author - impact wrench to loosen the wheel nuts. Yes, and one electric, the heaviest. However, for all operations and parts, conducted strict control. Maybe that's why, the percentage of complaints is extremely low.



BTR - completely isolated hydro and gas. In the photo the door with a gas analyzer.

The conveyor. Machines do not go under them moves the tape to the supports.



Real impressive.

Machines with mounted power plants.

Then go to the installation of the machine that is ordered. Discussed even within the cladding material (Rolls-Royce has a rest). Generally, APCs, and so full of modifications: floating and floating machine communication, command and staff vehicle (instead of the tower, to make a "hump" on the landing bay) and much more, which will order the client.

And it floats! Do not speed boat, of course. But not "Titanic." Floats. Floats and even roll in turns, like a ship.



Out of the water. It looks spectacular.



After the march, the product driven on public acceptance. Check everything. Literally.



Then the author goes to the landfill. There also went for a swim APC. The landfill is located on the territory of the plant. Not big in size. A standard set of obstacles that standard, and "cool" passes under test technique.



It passed without all the problems.

I have everything)
