The MAZ-543/MAZ-7310 "Uragan" (Russian: МАЗ-543/МАЗ-7310 "Ураган"/Hurricane) is a Soviet/Belarusian 8×8 artillery truck designed and developed by MAZ (Minsk Automobile Plant), in what is now Belarus.
Designed in the 1960s, the MAZ-543 was presented on 7 November 1965 during the Moscow Red Square military parade as part of SS-1с Scud B (9K72 Elbrus) system. The vehicle is powered by a 38.9 litre D12A-525 tank diesel engine producing around 525 horsepower, and gives a maximum road speed of 37 mph (60 km/h). There have been a number of variants.
The 1967 MAZ-543A, arrived (with extra carrying capacity up to 22000 kg).
The MAZ-7310 could operate together with 4WD MAZ-8385 trailer as a road-train (total length - 205.5 m) for oil surveying,.[1] It was used in Siberia and also as a tractor on military airbases.
The MAZ-543M version was designed to carry the BM-30 Smerch Multiple rocket launcher.
The MAZ-543P (carrying capacity - 19600 kg) was used for 9K76 Temp-S system.
The MAZ-547 version is a six-axle version, used as Transporter erector launcher for the RSD-10 Pioneer.
This variant is used to carry the air defense missile complex S-300PMU-2.
This variant is used mainly to transport the air search radar 64N6 BIG BIRD for the S-300PM.
In 1986, People's Republic of China fielded its version of MAZ-543. Initially designated WS580 but later renamed WS2400, this Chinese version is one of the Wanshan series trucks manufactured by Wanshan Special Vehicle,[2] a wholly owned subsidiary of China Aerospace Sanjiang Space Co. Ltd.,[3] which is in turn a subsidiary of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC).[4] The advantage of the Chinese vehicle is that it utilizes a German diesel engine, transmission and hydraulics manufactured by Wanshan in China, built using technologies transferred from ZF Friedrichshafen.
