- In the battle against invading Russian forces, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has requested help from many countries in the form of armored vehicles. One such country is Australia and the request has been for the Bushmaster armored vehicle. This comes as no great surprise as the Australia-made 4x4 vehicle does have a reputation of being a very capable war machine, especially proving its worth in troop-transport operations. In this video we are going to take a closer look at the vehicle named after a very venomous snake and see exactly what it is capable of.

it was NOT named after a South American snake! Australian wilderness is known as 'the bush', and the name refers to the offroad all-terrain capabilities of the vehicle, 'mastering' those.
The Bushmaster snake is native to South America and is not found in Australia. The vehicle name comes from being a master of the bush. If Australia was going to name this vehicle after a snake they have a multitude of their own native venomous snakes they could have selected. A simple google search would have identified this.
As an Australian, the term 'Bush Master' has nothing to do with some foreign snake (40 second mark). We Aussies call the woods, the bush. And this infantry vehicle wants to own the bush, and be the boss of that terrain, hence the term 'master'. If we wished to name this wagon after a snake, well we are not short of names. We have the most poisonous snakes in the world, that would eat a 'bushmaster' for breakfast.
The Aussies make good vehicles and the Bushmaster is a great vehicle.
It was the only IED proof vehicle during the Iraq and Afghan wars. 80 lost in combat no Australian soldiers killed.
Russia "shocked" by Australian Bushmaster. Change the channel name to "Incredible BS".
Best wishes to our Ukrainian mates. We stand with you all 🇦🇺🇺🇦🇦🇺🇺🇦
As a EX APC / ADF Crew Commander The Bushmaster Vehicle is beyond outstanding for the want of a better word I must say .....JB
The Bushmaster is not named after the snake. It is named after mastery of countryside which is called the Bush in Australia. Therefore it is a master of the Bush so Bushmaster it is.
It's an awesome IFV, but let's be honest, Russia isn't scared of them. They've all been blown apart by overwhelming Russian firepower by this point.
Named after a venomous snake WTF. It’s not named after a bloody snake found in the Amazon. It’s name the Bush Master because it’s fucking good in the bush. 🙄.
Mate, I'm a retired Australian truck driver and I have carried a lot of bushmasters, let me say that pictures and videos don't do these justice, seeing them in the flesh and driving them whilst loading and unloading them, these things are an absolute beast, I've carried them when they have come back after hitting an IED, the only damage they suffer is the wheels and suspension got blown off and nothing penetrated the cabin area, no one inside was hurt in any way, I've seen one that took a round from a 50cal at point blank range to the windscreen and the round did not pierce the glass, an absolutely incredible machine 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍
Oshkosh doesn't own ADI, Thales does.
I am retired now but was lucky to work for a company that supplied a number components for both the Bushmaster and the Hawkei. They were built in Bendigo Victoria Australia by Thales (pronounced Tallis).
It’s not a lethal weapon, it’s something that stops weapons being lethal.
It is not a truck.
One correction the vehicle was designed by Timoney (IRL).
It’s not nano meters , it’s newton metres of torque
Look forward to seeing our Bushmasters drive into Sevastopol
Well done cuzzies. This will be a massive help to Ukraine. I've already seen a thank you video from some soldiers who received them. They seemed to love them.
