This tractor, common in the USSR and even abroad, had many features, because of which its owners were ambivalent about it. The model had a large number of modifications, was produced by different factories, but still the name of the equipment remained according to the parent company - "Vladimirets".
How did he get abroad? Relations with the West at that time were more or less normal. The tractor was certified in the USSR, and then the USA, Sweden. Why did you like Soviet technology? First of all, versatility: it could be configured for any coupling agricultural implement. The ground clearance, the distance between the wheels changed, there was a changeover to reverse. Plus, a panoramic view and a good layout of nodes. Yes, and the price, the design, which was especially liked abroad. A complete list of the advantages that the tractor was equipped with when sent abroad took a couple of printed sheets!
And what did the T-25 not please Western farmers at first? The author of the video on the BIBIP channel talks about all the disadvantages of the model. But the nature of the shortcomings for the Soviet collective farmer is unusual: for example, the farmers did not like the lack of seat belts and a fuel gauge. Why are they in the USSR? Has anyone seen a tractor driver wrapped in belts? It’s not worth talking about cheap diesel fuel, which could be scooped up in buckets. But there were other disadvantages of the T-26, which you will learn about by watching the video.
