The Embassy of Ukraine in Latvia organized the delivery of Swedish tracked amphibious all-terrain vehicles Bandvagn 202 for needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They were purchased in Norway thanks to donations from the Latvian community of Chicago and the Latvian volunteer organization “SOS Aid to the Army of Ukraine”, writes Militarny.
Bandvagn 202 all-terrain vehicles are designed to transport personnel and equipment in complex conditions of the terrain, moving through bodies of water or in extreme weather conditions.
All-terrain vehicle Bandvagn 202, developed by the Swedish company Volvo, has a load capacity of one ton and accommodates 10 people. The peculiarity of this tracked all-terrain vehicle is its amphibious capabilities, which allow it to move through water at a speed of up to 6 km/h.
