The army of the Russian Federation received a new engineering machine to deploy in Ukraine (photo)

According to experts, this technique is intended to significantly improve the possibilities of engineering troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, especially in the conditions of current conflict in Ukraine. About it reports Army Recognition. Uralvagonzavod was developed by the Uralvagonzavod engineers on the basis of the T-90M tank. The machine weighs more than 50 tons and is equipped with an engine of 1130 hp, which provides high mobility.

The main weapons on the equipment have a remote controlled module with the KORD machine gun 12. 7 mm. The functionality of the UMM includes: the hollow is equipped with a bulldozer dump, a crane arrow with a maximum load capacity of 7500 kg, an excavator bucket or a hydraulic hammer.

The machine also has the ability to work in contaminated terrain, which makes it a universal platform to perform tasks in combat conditions in the arsenal of the Russian army there is another engineering machine of exploration of the IMR-3M, originally designed to perform sapper tasks. This technique is inferior to the manner because it has a less powerful engine (840 hp).

In this case, its functionality is limited by simpler tasks such as lifting loads up to 2 tons or clearing the terrain with a U-shaped dump. It is noted that the miserable will be used both in addition to the IMR-3M and to accomplish more complex tasks. Engineering machines of this type are able to significantly enhance the mobility of troops, to exchange areas with intense mining and to strengthen the defense lines.

Such opportunities are especially important in the conditions of urban war and positioning war in Ukraine. Thus, the features of the Underk you indicate that it is a completely versatile machine for engineering troops. By its capabilities, it can replace a number of equipment, including degeneration machines, overpass, evacuation cars and demining.
