OT-64 R2M SCOT for Teardown

OT-64 R2M SCOT is an 8x8 amphibious (Armored Personal Carrier (APC) (amphibious mode coming soon).

History:

OT-64 was intended to replace the halftrack OT-810, which was nearly identical to the German Sd.Kfz. 251 from World War II. The first prototype was built in 1959. In 1961 the first sample series were built and starting from October 1963 the vehicles were produced in Lublin, Poland by Fabryka Samochodów Ciężarowych. Serial production of the transporter started at FSC in Lublin (Poland) on October 12, 1963. The Polish plant acted as an assembly plant. Components of the propulsion system and power transmission (engine Tatra, transmission Praga and chassis) were imported from Czechoslovakia. Armored hulls and towers (Huta in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski and Huta Częstochowa), elements of the suspension system (Huta Stalowa Wola) and on-board armaments (Zakłady Mechaniczne in Tarnów) were manufactured in Poland. Production ended on July 22, 1971. Of the 4,500 OT-64s produced, 2,500 of them were obtained by the Polish army, and 2,000 of them by the Czechoslovak army. They were also acquired by the Hungarian army. Later, after introducing the BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles into service, SKOT transporters were exported to other countries. Today they are gradually being replaced by newer vehicles.
