KAMAZ-4326 Vehicles for Russian Border Troops

Two-axle all-wheel drive KAMAZ-4326 military trucks fully comply with all standards of the Russian border troops.

This conclusion was made by military experts of the North-Caucasian Regional Border Department upon the results of military operational tests which had been held in August-October 2003.

Against orders of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, KAMAZ manufactured 2 samples of this high-sided double-purpose truck with additional and special complete sets. For more than two months of continuous operation, these trucks traveled 10–11 thousand km transporting personnel and cargoes under various climatic and road conditions. The drivers and commanding officers of the North-Caucasian Regional Border Department noted reliability and high cross-country capability of the trucks. It is easy and comfortable to control the truck, and a powerful engine (KAMAZ-740.11–240) makes it possible to surmount steep slopes easily. These trucks are handier than their analogues produced by other automobile plants of Russia and CIS. KAMAZ-4326 vehicles run smoothly, keep their high steerability even under extreme road conditions, and without any difficulty pass hairpins and run on rough terrain. Above all, there is no roll at all. The border officers’ opinion letter says that KAMAZ-4326 "complies with all demands made of vehicles to perform tasks with which units of the North-Caucasian Regional Border Department are entrusted".

Other consumers of the company, including foreign ones, appreciate reliability and high technical-and-tactical specifications of multipurpose all-wheel drive KAMAZ trucks. Two- and three-axle vehicles of various payloads were useful both for builders and for the Armed Forces of developing countries of Asia, Africa and other continents. Many times they transported humanitarian loads under the aegis of the UN. At the beginning of 2004, OJSC KAMAZ exported 40 KAMAZ-4326 trucks to Bahrain.
