    I'm Italian, I have a Czech collegue who is a mechanic engineer, he designs our pumps, impellers, etc. He showed me his books and notebooks, safe to say the Czech are masters and demigods when it comes to mechanical design and engineering

    edit: my comment may seem off topic, but it's just a way to say that hearing about Tatra always rejoices my heart!

    • @Thinginator
      @Thinginator ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Tatra is still around, they're still a major truck manufacturer, they just gave up on producing cars because under communism they weren't allowed to innovate to keep up with foreign car brands, so by the time they were actually allowed to do so their cars were decades out of date and it would've cost too much to develop an entirely new one. They did put in a good effort though, their last car was the T700 which made 300 hp from its air-cooled V8.

      There is a sad story of hostile overtake attempt from USA, where the company nearly bankrupted. They even ruined relationship to the largest customer - Indian military. They were even banned to sell to china by puppet president, and Mercedes took the offer in 90s, it was a deal for about 2000 trucks when our economy was barely growing after the great fall. Now however the company is producing over 2000 trucks yearly (dropped to 800 at one time), and is known to be innovating and developing it´s capabilities.
      10x10 chassis was produced, all wheel turns, crab walking and french military uses tatra chassis in new Cesar howitzers and Titus armored vehicle. Unlike old models, there are armored cabins up to stanag-4, engines are stronger and more configurations available to allow servicing them anywhere in world.
      You may look up the latest howitzer produced on Tatra chassis - Morana.

    The sound of these engines are unique (thanks to air cooling) , brutal, and more associated to a beast coming right from hell than to an engine.
    The offroad capabilities of these machines are impressive. Again, it's more like a animal crawling, perfectly adapting to the terrain, than a stiff human made iron vehicle.
    I'd love to have one to go to the grocery. No need for GPS. Goes from point A to point B in a straight line without noticing if it runs on road, mud, dirt, a snowfield, a 45° slope, or even a river....

    I think the Romanian Army still uses a few for pulling their tanks (as most of our tanks are still T-55...). And I said a few since the rest of the trucks that pull tanks are Romanian Dac 887R trucks. They were developed in the mid to late '80 and used the first ever (and last) 100% Romanian truck engine, the 1240-V8-DT, a 12.4 liter V8 diesel engine with turbo (DT comes from "Diesel Turboaspirat"). They also were 8x8 and had a specific sound. A beautiful sound indeed! Back in the '80, our truck brand, "Întreprinderea de Autocamioane Brașov" (The Truck Enterprise Brașov) was competing with brands like Tatra, although being almost 60 years younger, but now it almost bankrupted and it barely produces a few trucks per year. They now have a contract with the army to modernise and repair almost all trucks they have (which were made by this company decades ago) but it's still far from ok. I still have hope since the colaboration with Man is still quite solid.

    We have to remember its designed in 1966/68 starts production 1969. So no turbo or air suspension was possible then. Simply the best truck in the world and that sound is wicked..

    I think some of the footage you show here, where large steel tanks are being towed, picture the transport of the reactor pressure vessels for nuclear powerplants. The common VVER type reactor pressure vessels were manufactured by Skoda, so that's why I think that, but I could be wrong, the shape of the tanks is slightly different.

    Great episode, Visio! I have always enjoyed reading about Czechoslovak engineering, including cars, trucks, and firearms. I really look forward to anything you can do to show Czechoslovak cars and trucks at this level of detail, with your excellent video source material. Thank you. Keep up the great work!

    That differential design is NUTS! We don't have anything like that in America, our go to for big trucks is double wishbone independent control arms with halfshafts exiting the sides of the diff mounted to a yoke.

    It's a great truck!! Btw.I have the upgraded successor a Tatra 815 8x8 VVN V12 for sale. I bought it in 2022 in the Czech Republic from a businessman that had it renovated to close to new look to be part of a military museum. He had to sell to survive economically through the Covid time. I have prepared it to be chassis for an around the world over landing trip that will never happen as we will buy a horse truck instead and bring our two horses. The Tatra comes with it's original 16 square meter transport basket. It has new tires and another new set of spares. If you want pictures of it let me now.

    An air-cooled, dry-sump engine of that size makes so much sense as not only is there considerable weight-reduction, but they are so much more reliable in sub-zero conditions!

    There where also imported in Romania, and used especially for towing heavy loads. A movie called The shipment ( in Romanian “cursa”)was made featuring a Tatra. It s on TH-cam. Great truck
