Russian Tanks Underwater River Crossing | Snorkel on Tanks | Unstoppable Tanks

In the suburbs of Moscow, at the Golovenki training ground, tankmen crossed a water barrier along the bottom of the river.

Underwater tank driving lessons were held at the waterdrome up to 5 meters deep and more than 100 meters wide. In the absence of visibility, the driver-mechanics, guided by the instruments, controlled the combat vehicle along the bottom without shifting gears, stopping and making sharp turns. The crossing of the river was attended, among other things, by servicemen called up for military service this spring.

Tankers were equipped with individual rescue equipment, isolating IP-5 gas masks, designed to rise to the surface during evacuation in the event of a tank stopping or flooding. With an insulating gas mask, a soldier can spend more than two hours under water.

Before the start of the exercise, the tankers underwent a light diving training course, during which, on a special flooded model of the tank, they worked out the standards for leaving the combat vehicle when the engine was stopped and using insulating gas masks, learned to breathe and move under water, and also brought the actions in the event of a flooding of the combat vehicle.
