- čas přidán 1. 07. 2019
- With the M3 Amphibious Rig over the Weser river: 4 Amphibious bridging vehicles were joined to set up a ferry service for a bicycle festival at the ferry terminal in Großenwieden, Germany. For the first time, the pioneers of the German Bundeswehr were supported by British soldiers.
The 360 hp amphibious vehicle has a 360-degree rotating jet propulsion system at the bow and stern. In ferry mode, up to 63.5 tonnes of payload are possible. The maximum speed in the water is 14 k.p.h.

As a former US Army Corp of Engineers technician, I just have one thing to say about these units. This is a seriously great advancement in temporary bridge and ferry operations. Ever since I was stationed in Germany in the late 1970s, I have always been one to say _"You can't beat German Engineering"_ but I was usually referring to Mercedes Benz cars and trucks. But this rig is _very impressive_ and I am _impressed._ Kudos to the developers!
"Sir they have taken out the bridge! how are we supposed to cross the river?!"
" We have no other choice, if we can't use a bridge WE BECOME THE BRIDGE!
I've never seen anything cooler than those transforming vehicles in my whole life.
I bet area 51 has more cool stuff😏
Lol your life must be pretty boring
My Friend, if you like german Engineering, checkout "German engineering at its finest".
Germans managed to balance a delicious Beer in Front of the 120 mm smoothbore gun.
As a non-German i need to say at this Point: Germans are
are the most beautiful
people of this world.
I love that it turns into a bridge!
See, us old guys had "transformers" back in the days, that REALLY FUNCTIONED!
I watched the whole video without skipping a second. It's oddly satisfying.
You are lieng
I think there is a video somewhere of the RoC army demonstrating the same M3 rig. I watched every second of that too.
EDIT: In that video, M3 is used as a bridge. It's treat. Check it out.
I used to work on these, the Mk2 version back in the 70/80's (28 Amphibious Engineer Regiment) out of Hameln near Hannover. They can also be a bridge if you have enough and a complicated pier set in the middle if the river was very wide. Two Mann Diesel engines, marine gearbox, transfer box (two of everything) and dead difficult to keep maintained. Seen many old Chieftain tanks going over the river on one of these. Loved my time in Hameln!

Hallo kollege! Ich war anfang der 80er in minden und plön bei der amphibischen einheit. Was hab ich die karre mit ihren 100 schmiernippeln gehaßt...
OK, I'm curious, do you think the basic design could be improved with some better / updated componentry (engines, gearboxes) to reduce the maintenance headaches? Admittedly, combination vehicles like this have a lot of tradeoffs, moving parts, and features with conflicting purposes that inherently increase maintenance needs. I find the concept and basic structure fascinating and think they could be very useful.
@@newtechnologyltd7184 🤣вы реально думаете что Украина потянет🤣ну вы чудак
Very impressive. Good to see the UK and German military forces working together. 👍

Normally theres a "reaction" ferry there, they moved it out of the way so these guys could practice, you can see it upper left at 9:45. But this is a lot faster.
I love CZcams recommendations now

As a 15.5 year old I signed on with the British Army at Bridge Camp Hamlin on the hill in the background. My Father was RSM of 28 Amphibious Engineer Regiment 1972/73.
To watch the older M2 Rigs was a joy:)))

Haven't seen the Germans and Brits work this hard since Monte Cassino!
Good collaboration between UK and Germany. Well done guys!
Back in the days of the cold war, the British Army used to have an entire regiment equipped with M3 rigs in Germany, 28 Amphibious Engineer Regiment based in Hameln. With enough Rigs linked together, you can bridge the whole width of the river.
US developed same thing in 50s. This seems like overkill.
@@scarney29 , not in certain situations, like having military vehicles needing to access battlefields or disaster areas where bridges are destroyed or flooded.
@@paxhumana2015 g
I remember bridging the river rhine a few times when I was at Hameln, now that was something to see
Wow! The National Guard should have these for flood situations and rescues.
They do

Oh.. Let me get back with you on that one because our government is in there and incompetent and Kenny rescue they own fucking sensors but let her natural disaster happened somewhere else or they didn't 5 days with release supplies all that bullshit
Hey I forgot to mention they're all videos of monster truck rescue in National Guard truck stuck in fucking flood waters in National Guard trucks are designed to navigate flood waters videos radio on CZcams thank goodness for Citizens volunteer relief teams because they don't need government permission the swing into action and thank goodness for the monster trucks
Natürlich funktioniert das nur, wenn man auch so eine schöne Rampe hat wo man die Dinger ins Gewässer bringen kann. Klar doch, hat man ja überall vor allem im Ernstfall, als dem Krieg und Kriegseinsatz gehört das ja dazu. - Wirklich nur eine Super-Show, die an der Realität vorbei geht.
The cost of fuel would be almost as much as building a bridge... 😅
Good job, lads! 👍🇬🇧
No actually big ships cross that and making a folding bridge is costlier
😆yeah but you forgot that during an emergency you can't build a bridge within a short duration but you buy fuel 😁
This is how we send the 101st senior attack bicycle squadron to the front lines

Watching this brings back some good memories. I spent nearly three and a half years (89-92) in Bad Kreuznach with 8th ID and 1st AD. The ridge line in the background is what I vividly remember about the terrain in Deutschland, mountains, valleys, cold ass weather and mud, lol. I honestly can't remember a warm sunny day while in the field or during training exercises. Our militaries are made up of mostly kids with mountains of responsibilities, countless duties and always training.

Very impressed with the speed with which these can be deployed, and with the professionalism of the crews operating them. Bravo Zulu to all the servicemembers involved!
Probably the only vehicles to come off exercise cleaner than when they started... :)

So what did you do in the military? "I Drove Mobile Bridges"
you know what's funny? If your truck breaks down in the water you is diw in other words dead in the water
Actually its a ferry not a mobile bridge otherwise the ships transporting people over the water to islands would be mobile bridges as well
@@5.accacestyle441 Yes your right. Although I've seen demos of them using it as a bridge on narrow waterways.
DH Yukon sure it can be used as a bridge if the river is small enough but on a small river u can use many things as a bridge even trees
@@5.accacestyle441 Take a load off n take a joke. U r correct. It is a ferry. Technically he is right also. A bridge is a platform that connects two or more structures over an area. Now watch me: its a big damn green thing. Eat yo heart out. Learn to take a joke! After 22 years in the US military it its an Amphibious Operations Support Vehicle. BAM! Rite again ole man. Dam i good. Have a great day!
That is so cool. Many people just dont realize how hard Engineers in the military work. But too help out with a bicycle event, even better. Also, I bet it was great practice for them.
yeah that's a good answer

@Hall of the Divine Throne I missed the part where that's my problem
Wow, such an amazing vehicle!!! Muy chulo!!!

When i saw these prepare to go into the water. My 10 year old childhood came to mind and i was totally getting the GI-JOE feeling.
Did you have the Base? Man everybody wanted the BASE.
@@Bodhi594 lol, Had half of the BASE when i was little. Found it at a yard sale.. But never was so fortunate to get the AirCraft Carrier that I thought all the other kids had except for me.. Later i found out it was 5 foot long and hardly no kids had it... That GO JOE commercial lied to me. lol
@@DolittleMccoy The Aircraft Carrier!!! I forgot all about that. Only one kid that I knew had that. He was a rich kid of course. The thing was MASSIVE. I only had parts of the Base also, Lol. But I made it work!
Lol I had to combine a Christmas and birthday to get that behemoth 1 present for all year and it was worth it
I kept thinking:"FROM HASBRO!" and that guy in the ads' sort of goofy voice.
Yeah, Aircraft Carrier FTW! You didn't have to be that rich, just not have parents who bought every other thing that "everybody" had.

Imagine this level of cooperation and ingenuity being used for the good of mankind.
Not everyone is sensible in this world, good without power to defend it is just a joke.
@@Mabaz The western world spends VASTLY more on the military than the threat demands. Platitudes about "good without power to defend it" are exactly the kind of nonsense spouted by the military industrial complex marketing men before selling another billion dollarss of child-killing arms to the terrorist states of Saudi Arabia or Israel.
@@Mabaz Seconded.
@@matbroomfield Dude I'm from Algeria, a muslim country. If anything were to happen your country would most likely invade mine for our resources. Saudi Arabia isn't a terrorist state as it didn't invade and take anyone's land to become a state, but meh you must have your own opinion about that. Anyway, I'll still say that good without power to defend it is a joke. Had the "3rd world" countries have enough power to defend themselves, they wouldn't have gone through genocides and colonization. Y'all wouldn't be stepping on us and taking what is ours for almost free. If Saudia Arabia had the power to defend themselves, Trump wouldn't have just barged in and demanded shit tons of money for no other reason than 'the united states of fucking america y'all belong to us cuz we got the weapons and the militaryz to give you freedom if you don't give us what we want'

I could just image how heavy those damn things are. And the hydraulic pumps they are carrying to do all that work.
.....and the 360 horse power!
24,500kg, _(27 tons for those of us in those non-metric rebellious upstart colonies)_ www.armedforces.co.uk/army/listings/l0063.html
Not that heavy, considering they're all basically watertight hulls made out of aluminum alloy. And hp drives the whole thing, so given a sufficient diesel engine, with decent capacity you would be amazed at how much these things can carry.
@@user-yx8bh9gu4t … 28 Tons! According to Wikipedia!
Actually there are herds of small immigrant workers in the hull with hand pumps.
This is got to be some of the most impressive pieces amphibious kit I’ve ever seen in my life. I MEAN FREAKING HELL MAAAAAAN. THEY MOVED SOOOO DAMN FAST.
bro ima be honest i watched this video in late 2019s when i was young and i been searching for this exact video for 4-5 years from now
Der Imbisswagen-Betreiber hat alles richtig gemacht ! ;)
Good job, guys!
Hello from Russia!🇷🇺😉
Fantastic, what awesome machines! Forwards, backwards, side to side, such a pleasure to watch and they sound great too. Looks like a fun day out. Danke!
madleech yup no DEF or DPF on these things 👌🏻
Waste of money. You must think the Russians are real stupid. With real time imagining from space and drones. That small town will be wiped off the map. Thousands of bodies everywhere. Cars trucks everything will be taken out. Artillery and fighter jets will take them out. Nice try. Do you really think the Russians have not figured this all out? Every river crossing in Europe has been plotted. You dont get it. Thats what they do. I would. Good luck.
Yes, those engines sound extraordinary .
@@peternorthrup6274 , what does any of that have to do with the content of the video? Also, the amphibious vehicles have equally valuable peace time applications, most notably rescuing larger groups of people from areas that are flooded. I would consider these vehicles as hardly wastes of money because inland waters are just as valuable, if not more so, than seas and ports to a battlefield advantage. Finally, what are you going to do when an enemy has taken out important bridges in an area, you moron? Vehicles that are like these, as well as those that can make bridges, are invaluable to a war effort, as well as with accessing disaster areas.
@Nathan Lynch That's what happens when your tin foil hat is too tight.
Woaw what a brilliant people, for putting all these machines up.
Einfach nur sehr Cool diese Fahrzeuge, ohne Ende.
Despite some negative comments below, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. I had no idea these machines even existed and to watch the soldiers do their job with such precision and team work was a real pleasure. Kudos to all !
That is the most spectacular thing i have ever seen, those guys are working together just perfect not one mistake. Good job.
Wow these gizmos are the ultimate Amphicar!! 😎
It looks as if they are carrying arm floaties 😄
I’m in the US and this is the first time I’ve seen something like this! How cool this looks and it was nice of them to do this for the people. (going by what I read in the description)
Those are mighty impressive vehicles, operated by people who seem incredibly skilled at their operation. Given the amount of flooding we've seen in recent years here in the US, I'm almost surprised the government doesn't have regional fleets of these stationed around for disaster and emergency response.
😂
Because they don't care about us
there is little profit for our honest politicians to do anything like that, so.....
We do. Engineering units of the Army Reserve and the National guard will have various types of bridging equipment available in every state.
@@marchutton7640 Correct. Unfortunately, we used to have a lot more but when Bush cut everything in the early 1990s a lot of the bridging disappeared. Most states had a bunch of sets of the M2 Bailey but my state doesn't have them anymore. Good Luck, Rick
That was impressive, solid European ingenuity and effectiveness on-display.
Herrliche Technik der 70er und 80 Jahre 😊👌.
Three Lieutenants were trying to cross a rough river in a storm. God appeared before them, granting them one request each.
The first LT said "God, grant me the strength needed to cross this river."
God gave him the muscle mass and endurance necessary; he swam across the river, reaching the other side in fifteen minutes and almost drowning thrice.
The second LT said "God, grant me the means needed to cross this river."
God gave him a kayak and paddle; he paddled across, reaching the other side in ten minutes and almost drowning once.
The last LT said "God, grant me the intelligence needed to cross this river."
God made him a Sergeant; he pulled out his map, realized there was a bridge just a few hundred metres upriver, and reached the other side in five minutes.
