HAGGLUND BV-206

[@greggreg2263]

Wow this crazy little box 📦 is unstoppable I don’t think there’s too many pieces of machinery in the world that would get through that kind of stuff. I want one!

[@clobbyhops]

It almost got stopped, that nasty permafrost is a B!tch!

[@mr.t101]

I used to drive these in the french swamps of south america. That was 10 years ago and i'm still in love with the BV 206.

[@benscoles5085]

2:54 is one of those OH CRAP moments in any lesser vehicle. fantastic, I loved it

[@azimuth361]

9:23 Notice how he swings left and right. You can make this amazing machine swim and slither through some impossible conditions. We drove these at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. They're amazing.

[@johnc.holmes4513]

Awesome, I drove one of these in the 80s while stationed in Alaska. Great cehicle, you can haul lots of gear. Fiberglass shell, you can push over 3 inch trees if need be. Not too bad of a ride as long as you are in the front. I loved it, especially in the spring, summer, same environment as here.

[@sidwainhouse]

I drove these for several years in the UK, Norway and the Falkland Islands. Awesome vehicles that would go pretty much anywhere, could have done with a diff lock on the front and rear cabs a couple of time though.

[@satanihelvetet]

Yeah, you really miss the diff lock sometimes at this models. That was aviable as an option at later models (with diesel engine).

[@donquixote1502]

These are beautiful scenes.

[@dixonqwerty]

These little things have been around for a long time, but they never fail to deliver. I had the opportunity to ride one of these. It is pretty much unstoppable. If there are any place where this thing can't go, it's not worth going there anyway. It is an absolute beast.

[@EdvinFields]

Drove these in the army. Great machines, lots of fun. They are even amphibious. Two weaknesses though, that high revving diesel never stops sweating and leaking oil, and the lack of diff locks between the four tracks, mean that if one track looses traction, you can get stuck. Happened especially on icy slopes. Top speed about 40km/h, fuel consumption about 11 ltr / 10km in rough terrain. Ours used a mix of kerosene and diesel fuel.

[@carpetclimber4027]

A thirsty little beast.

[@xerxes456]

drove it 1982 in the army it was ford 6 cyl petrol engine and Mercedes transmission that was the setup in the Swedish army

[@candyking59]

I managed to max it out at 65 km/h in a downward slope, normally it would hit 50-55 km/h

[@bergvik69]

I was a BV-206 driver in the army and really miss it when I see this!

[@JimmyJamesonJnr]

[@squatsnoats6503]

Me too, I actually ended up having lots of fun in the army because I got to drive this while others marched and crawled in rain and snow :)

[@t.w.3]

I was driving these in the army. Unstoppable almost. Very fun drifting on ice covered sea. They work well on lakes and in the sea if the seastate is below 2. Very cool machines with modern Diesel engines.

costly to maintain ?

[@scopex2749]

Kick ass vehicle I remember these when I was in the services! Gotta be one of the toughest vehicles in the army, just when you think it has had it and is stuck it just ROARS OUT!! The only thin that stopped it was the engine compartment full of water!

[@quasicroissant]

Rode a lot on these in the Finnish military in Lapland. They we're basically unstoppable, the exception being waist-deep snow...

[@jannikheidemann3805]

Time to upgrade the bilge pump with an automaticaly cleaned filter forcing the mud out of the vehicle with pressure! The mud covered white round thing under the light brown (rusty?) power train at 8:54 is the bilge pump that seized working due to that exact mud problem, isn't it?

[@robertjonsson5750]

I was driving one of these Hägglund bandvagn BV206 in my military service 93-94 in Sweden. We had a 7.62 mm machine gun on the roof and pulling a 120 mm grenade launcher behind. The BV 206 can also swim in water in about 3 km/h. But 6mm fibre glass was not so good protection from bullits. Fun to see this again though!

[@schneider7645]

Cool. Does it have the same 3,9L V8 as Sisu NA-140? They are very similar vehicles.

[@robertjonsson5750]

@@schneider7645 Ha ha! No no, it was powered with a Ford 2,8 l v6 with about 136 hp. That engine was working hard..😶

[@fromaggio7654]

How often does the track get broken?

[@bjokalindell3743]

It happens, but since Swedish army use them for transportation they are very durable. In my service i mostly ride(slept)in the back. Except when we crossed a river with ice floating around us. A big block would probably had made a hole in the fiberglass construction. The only thing it didn´t cope with was ice. We had to be winched up the long slope by an army truck. The first ones made it up, but then the water froze in the slope and we was stuck at the bank. We went up stream so i think the speed was around 1,5-2 mph in water faster downstream of course.

[@lardal68]

Can always buy new tracks, we're still producing them. Just delivered 50 tracks. Preparing to run another 60 in a few weeks.
