Below, a video of the amphitruck, however not from the article. I searched youtube and found the video here
Perhaps some of you may want to click through to the youtube page that hosts the video and see if you find anything peculiar about it, or am I just being paranoid…
This looks to be an redesign and upgrade to the WWII ducks (DP?) that the navy build and used during WWII, several years ago I heard a report that the Navy was ordering new vehicles with the same capabilities. I wondered about this since they are useful only in enviroments where delivering large cargoes is difficult unless you can travel on the water.
WOW! I loved watching the work of the wheels. It’s just cool!
Thanks for sharing!
