If “tanks are not afraid of dirt,” then tractors are even more so. Is this really the case? One of the most powerful representatives of Russian wheeled vehicles, the Kirovets (K-700), would seem to overcome any obstacle: a swamp, large snowdrifts, not to mention “elementary” mud. But, as it turned out, even in a normal track the car can slip.
Of course, this most often happens when the tractor is dragging a heavy load. For example, in a video from the Harry Stream channel, Kirovets is transporting trailers with hay. The problem here is not only not to get stuck - you also need to be able to move away! And yet, the Soviet giant is not a super all-terrain vehicle, which, apparently, some drivers forget. This is confirmed by the videos shown, combined into a microfilm, where the K-700 is desperately sinking either in a swamp or in waist-deep ruts.
But here the second question arises: how to rescue this colossus from the problem area? There are quite a lot of options, but the main one is to find equipment that is suitable in terms of power and use it as a tug. What if the second Kirovets is not even close? You have to take what is “at hand”. And it will not always be a tractor with horsepower equal to the K-700. However, this is also possible: if you want to see this (and see how “Kirovets” transports a house), turn on the video!
