PZM-2M (prototype engineering trench machine)
ПЗМ-2М (опытный образец инженерной траншейной машины)
Dear Sirs,
at the Moscow exhibition Armija-2021 (Армия-2021) the company Galičsky Avtokranovyj zavod (Галичский автокрановый завод, ГАКЗ) presented a prototype of a trench machine with the factory designation PZM-2M (ПЗМ-2М, меме The management of GAKZ assumes that the proposed engineering facility will replace the fifty-three-year-old PZM-2 with the chassis of the Kharkov T-155 tractor.


The manufacturer states the following main advantages:
- high transport speed along its own axis,
- the additional MGD crawler chassis increases throughput and speed in low-clearance terrain,
- simplified maintenance thanks to the use of serial chassis KamAZ-65224,
- easy installation of additional equipment, such as bulldozer blades.


According to GAKZ specialists, the PZM-2M can be used to extinguish forest fires in hard-to-reach taiga areas. For example, by creating protective ditches up to 3.2 meters wide and with the help of excavated soil thrower, protection zones up to 20 m wide can be created. The earthworks can be controlled from the driver's cab and, if necessary, remotely using a 50 m cable.


Serial production should take place in the Kamyšin factory, which is part of the holding Kudesnik (Кудесник).


Basic tactical and technical data:
- modified truck chassis: KamAZ-65224
- additional crawler chassis: MGD (?)
- weight: 23500 kg
- crew: 2 people


Performances:
- excavation of 1.2 m of trenches with a width of 0.9 m and a bottom width of 0.65 m in unfrozen soil at a speed of up to 180 m/h
- in frozen soil at speeds of up to 35 m/h
- digging of pits in unfrozen soils at speeds of up to 140 m/h


- maximum speed on the road: 80 km/h
