Legion 1:72 Ukrainian KamAZ 4310 Cargo Truck, LEG12061LD

Description: "By powerful artillery fire, air strikes, and a wave of attacking tanks, we're supposed to swiftly crush the enemy." - Marshal Georgi K. Zhukov The KamAZ-4310 (Russian: КамАЗ-4310) is an all-wheel drive truck produced by Kamaz in Naberezhnye Chelny. The vehicle was built in series in different versions from 1981 to 1995, a very similar successor is still on the market today with the KamAZ-43114, also in different versions. As early as 1971, ten years before the start of large-scale production, the plant presented its first prototype under the name KamAZ-4310. It already had all the essential features that the series model later had: single tires on all axles, permanent all-wheel drive, a tilting driver's cab and the KamAZ-740 engine. In 1972, pre-series production began, which resulted in a total of four different types. They differed only insignificantly in structure and were all manufactured until 1978. In 1981, serial production of the KamAZ-4310 model finally began. Like all previous types, it had only minor changes compared to the original version from 1971 and was very similar in construction to the KamAZ-5320 without all-wheel drive. The main difference was the payload, which increased by one ton to six tons compared to all previous versions. Production continued until 1989. This year the vehicle was revised and received a more powerful version of the KamAZ 740 engine with now 220 hp. Engines with 210 hp had previously been installed. Production was stopped in 1995 in favor of the modernized successor, the KamAZ-43114. In 1987, vehicles of this type came to East Germany to be used by the National People's Army. In particular, these were tank vehicles and box vehicles with special bodies. In addition, VEB Maschinenbau Karl Marx Babelsberg built a total of 17 vehicles of the type 100 car slewing crane with a lifting force of ten tons in 1989 and 1990, using the chassis of the KamAZ-43105.

Its cargo area is covered with removable bows and canvas cover. However this military truck is also available with a number of body styles. Its payload on cross-country terrain is limited to 6 t. Load with 6 t of cargo the KamAZ-4310 has a maximum road speed of 85 km/h. It can also tow trailers or artillery pieces with a maximum weight up to 7 t. An all-metal cab provides seating for driver and two passengers. Numerous military conflicts revealed that driver and cabin passengers of KamAZ trucks are very vulnerable to mine blasts due to the cab-over-engine layout. Typically the cab is completely destroyed once the truck runs over an anti tank mine. Russian soldiers preferred to drive a contemporary Ural-4320 truck with a bonneted cab, which was offset from the front wheels. The KamAZ-4310 is powered by a YaMZ-740 10.85-liter V8 diesel engine, developing 210 hp. The same engine is also used by the Ural-4320 and some passenger busses. Vehicle has a full-time all wheel drive. This military truck is fitted with a central tire pressure system, which improves off-road mobility. A self-recovery winch was fitted to some models.
