The physics of holding that extended bridge from only one side is unbelievable.

[@MrAppie9090]

Meh aluminium bridge and really really heavy armored tank with a really big 830 bhp engine in the back. In total it weights 43 tons since it still has the full battletank version's armor on it. And since this is an old leopard 1 tank it's good old laminated steel What's really impressive is that this vehicle lays a 22 meter bridge in 3 minutes, can do so without personeel having to come from cover and if it does have a problem with the engine for example it can swap it out within 2 hours. That's crazy. It can also fit ground moving blades and does a cool 62 kmh on the road.

[@dextermorgan5397]

OMG the weight it can hold when extended is amazing ! so cool bridge i like this more that the american style bridge tank

[@MrAppie9090]

It's because with the American style you advertise your location to everyone. And since the point of these things is to come at the enemy from an angle they did not expect that's a problem. I mean otherwise you might as well use main roads. This takes 3 minutes, is way more sneaky and it can just pick that bridge up from the other side and keep with the rest of the vehicles. Something not all American ones can do.

[@SerialDelta]

I've driven over a few of these in an M113... in the dark. There's no lats allowed once on the bridge. I cannot remember it's length, but if it has solid edgings it only needs 50cm each end. 22 Meters comes to mind but it's been a few years.

[@moniquemommers9520]

Dutch Army develops with German counter partners military equipment. The bridge classification is much to low for modern track powered armory. So the dutch are developing a new improved up-to-date system. And this is a training situation.

[@oneunknownday]

[@ronniejuayno9679]

It’s amazingly engineering

[@BlackThanator]

Cool, didn't know that the dutch army uses german military equipment. Also I never thought to see a Bieber and an AH-64 Apache in the same video. Nicely filmed by the way, i like the perspective.

[@Rory_merchury]

Soldier im dutch and we indeed use german SPG, Leopard 2's, and troop transport, we use also Apache and use F16

[@MFKR696]

+Soldier The Canadian Forces uses alot of old German gear, as well. We currently use both the Leopard (both versions,) and the Mercedes G-Wagen (worst possible excuse for military transportation if you ask me.) We'd be better off if we just replaced all our G-Wagens with the Chevy Suburban variants we use.

[@BlackThanator]

INF1D3L010 I agree, the Mercedes G isn't that well thought out. The MAN multi-purpose trucks are a way better (uh...) way to transport troops and supplies, although they are larger.

[@MFKR696]

xXxradius90xXx It's the same thing with the Canadian Forces. Did you know, btw, that Dutch forces use the same Canadian-made C7/8s that we do.

[@firegamesxl]

INF1D3L010 YES! Got to shoot with the c8 in the Netherlands, best weapon I ever touched.

[@ronaldli5]

My goodness I cannot imagine the mechanical stress on the edge there attached to the tank when it's extended to its fullest.. makes me cringe for the tank.. Poor thing

Both the bridge laying tank and the bridge are built to take the stress...

@@wkruit I know they're built to withstand it but the forces are still out of imagination for me, comparing it to our own bodies, as are way more things out there in the universe, like how unimaginably dense neutron stars are, or how much bigger some suns are than our own sun, which is already gargantuan compared to our Earth. >

This must be a training video, back in the 80's Armd Engrs would simply drive to a 2m picket by the river and deploy. No-one would leave the vehicle. Bridge would be laid in 2mins and it would be all over.

his very good.but why dont make and some more bigger? i think for special time maybe is litle for bridge

[@Chuck59ish]

Because it's an assault bridge. It's meant to get the tank bridage into battle, then the Engineers will bring a more permanent bridge to handle all the rest of the supplies need to advance the battle to the enemy. Been there, done that, I'm a retired Canadian Combat Engineer.

Coen Voors Its 830 HP engine brings it up to 63 km/h on plain terrain.

Google it if you don't believe me, the tank is called "Brückenlegepanzer Biber" or "Bridgelayer Biber".

WELL considering a 10 meter local bridge here in norway took almost 3 years to build,, i say it was VERY FAST, haha actually the 10 meter bridge was buildt in a few days but the traffic was rerouted 3 years over a temporary bridge until all utilities that also should be in the bridge was in place say::: phone lines-waterpipes-power cables.. and also miles of road on both sides got upgraded before they poured the last concrete. the temporary bridge came finisd and was lifted in place in 5 minutes by an axcavator. sturdy enough, but only 1 lane,, so we had a dang traffic light 3 years. the finisd bridge have 2 lines + walklines on both sides with handrails on both sides of the walkpath
