With some modifications it would be one hell of a zombie apocalypse vehicle. - small plow at each end -mg turret -solar panels -larger fuel tanks -light armor -caged windows -flood lights on all sides
The Catco haulers not only distribute their weight so widely that they can (under certain conditions) roll over a man's legs without harming him, but they never experience wheelspin because the drive force is transferred to the top of each air bag using a wide friction roller, rather than being driven through the axle. This protects the surface they are traveling over, and prevents ever digging in.
I don't think how the tires are spun affects anything. I think the reason they're driven from the top instead of the middle is simply because it makes the drive shafts shorter and simpler with fewer joints. It could also be used to increase ground clearance to be greater than the wheel radius. I think the vehicle doesn't get stuck simply because of the low ground pressure combined with having so many wheels providing tractive force (like 4WD)
I am a retired Amy Prime Power Production Specialist and was hired just prior to retirement date by Detroit Diesel and worked on large and smaller generators from the north slope to Belize, the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Malaysia, on Marine propulsion, marine generators and land based generators. Great job but, the North Slope sucks as does the fishing fleet along the Aleutian Islands/Dutch harbor…since I am 6’5”. Field service is a great job but, I never saw one of the cool vehicles up there.
The MF 60 in the hands of a farmer from Ukraine... Russian tank: " We're advancing into Ukraine at 45 mph.." Russian HQ: "Excellent... Wait a minute - you can't be driving that fast!" Russian tank: "We didn't think that either - and we're doing in reverse...."

Am I the only on that thinks that the MF-60 would make an incredible camper van?
I know right!
it could power an entire campsite and even be used as mobile camp store, office

Except for it being too large to be street legal and consuming way too much fuel to be practical, it would be a cool RV.
Absolutely
No click bait, impressive 👍

@@JWQweqOPDH Except that CATCO marketed the roller drive as providing said benefits.
congrats, saw multiple vehicles i had not seen before. that is rare in these types of videos.
❤ fabuleux engins pour des usages exceptionnels, très bon travail de recherche d'archives 👍👌👏❤
The Lauster looks like it could double as a mobile home with its own server farm inside - perfect for me. :)
It’s pretty cool when you see your hometown in one of these videos. The first few videos of the Commander is of my town, Prince George, BC
MF-60 looks like the giga Chad version of a bus.
Love these videos, this equipment is awesome 👍👍
that test bench is colossal, imagine that kicked out as armoured vehicle
WOW!!! Very very good Work 👍👍👍
Another very interesting video of redesigned and imagined vehicles that I didn't know existed!
Those big trucks are awesome!❤
Such a fascinating Channel. Thank you.
I knew it was an artic exploration vehicle due to the high profile clearance from the ground and closed bunks.
Nice video
Sweet

80 ton bus designed to test Leopard tank engine power? Interesting.
Horsepower numbers are interesting, but torque ratings are what mater. It’d be great to have those in the specs.
Ok… the description of the Commander included torque 👍🏻
It’s a sausage truck cows, chickens and pigs go in the front and out the back it leaves a giant sausage trail scooped up by slapstick type characters.
Seen this while with a tank strapped fast at the back testning braking abbility
The cab of the catco looks like it was taken from an MAN
Maybe freightliner argosy?
@@misatokatsuragi9122i never heard about that one before

The HORRIBLE MUSIC is really annoying 😠
It was better without the annoying voiceover
The only thing that is annoying is your comment...😒
НУУ И??? ДЛЯ ЧЕГО ЭТО САРАЙ ИСПОЛЬЗОВАЛСЯ???? НИКТО МНЕ НЕ СКАЗАЛ..
It was used by your mother to get her weekly groceries! 😆
I use mine to get my snacks and pizza. And I can live in it. Just find a tow truck to haul it away. Go ahead. I'll wait.
So you just pollute the place instead 😂😅
Exterminator Future.
Do you mean Leopard tanks which have proven to be junk in the Ukraine war? 7:43
The musik is kind of fucked - up !!
НАДО ОТДАТЬ АМЕРИКАНЦАМ ДОЛЖНОЕ, ОНИ УМЕЮТ КАК НИКТО ДРУГОЙ ДЕЛАТЬ ТЕХНИКУ! МОЛОДЦЫ!!!
