OREANDA-NEWS.   The first trainings for drivers of military KAMAZ vehicles equipped with the latest GLONASS satellite communication system were carried out in Volgograd Oblast.
100 servicemen of logistical support units of the Southern Military District maneuvered 40 KAMAZ- 65117 trucks on a track, over rough terrain and off-the-road moving in a mixed column and driving in extreme conditions. Particular attention was paid to the rules of transportation and handling of dangerous goods, also in emergency situations. In addition, during the march the soldiers practiced repelling attacks of sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the imaginary enemy and taking measures in case of a threat from the air. The route was full of impassable sections, ravines and ditches two meters deep.
Using the navigation system you can calculate the speed, the arrival time, link to digital maps at any time regardless of weather conditions. The system monitors and analyzes the movement of the vehicle column, deviations from the route, and the module can show information on a dispatcher’s screen and store data to be further decoded upon the vehicle’s arrival. Each truck is equipped with communication tools, and the driver can contact the dispatcher in case of any failure on the move.
