Engines for infantry fighting vehicles"

Episode: "Engines for infantry fighting vehicles"
Description: "Power - 500 horses, crankshaft - hardened, crankcase - aluminum, fuel - any kind, be it diesel, be it kerosene, be it alcohol - we're not talking about a sports supercar, but about an infantry fighting vehicle. More precisely about its engine - UTD-29. This internal combustion engine is the pinnacle of engineering. It is capable of accelerating the BMP-3, a vehicle weighing more than 20 tons, to a record 70 kilometers per hour, and operate confidently even in conditions when it is damaged and oil is leaking. The film crew of “Military Acceptance” goes to Barnaul, to a plant where they produce engines for infantry fighting vehicles. The host of the program, Alexey Egorov, will show how a steel crankshaft is forged and hardened, how an aluminum engine body is smelted, and will also explain what exactly makes this engine unique."
