    For those who don't get it, the CCCP made a lot of "Design Experiments" for land, sea, air, propaganda, and a great practical teaching tool for your design bureaus. So of course they made the "Largest Ever" often, but they also made cool stuff like trolley trucks, powered from the Grid just like trolley buses & street cars...
    The large trucks based on the dual driver MAZ-543 chassis that could transport pipeline, rail or other similar cargo that turned out to be the "Most Economical" being that they were most useful. Considering that the MAZ-543 mobile missile launcher carriers never had a functioning missile inside, these useful trucks transported large & long materials during or after the fall of the CCCP. And the longer your rails, pipes, etc. the less wielding needed for your railroad line, pipeline, etc...

      Kind of depends how its defined. But something like a Caterpillar 797 is about twice as large as this unit.
      Then there is modular load carriers or SPM. They are configurable to carry pretty much what ever you can think of. There is multiple times where they been used to carry 1000s of tons of buildings in one go.
      But of cause, they are modular, so its not one vehicle, but maybe 50 or 100 connected together.
      Then there is stuff like the LARC-LX that is.. slightly smaller, but only have 4 wheels.
      So it kind of depends how you define a similar vehicle. but a cat 797 is for sure larger

      @@VisioRacer OK, understood now:). US sizes which are usually used for big and off road tires are diameter x width - rim size, and whenever saying a tire is “xx” inch it is customary to refer to the diameter. As long as I have your attention, your truck videos where you delve into technical details other than just the engine are the most interesting to me personally. If you could do other videos talking about technical subjects other than just the engines that would be superb. Keep up the good work, enjoying your channel.

    In olden days Russia had great thinkers and innovators, but with Communism comes the nature of not think at all but waiting for someone else to tell them what to think.

      This is the dumbest thing you could possibly say.
      Before the revolution Russia was the poorest country in the world and after only 30 years they literally beat the Natzee's and were a superpower to rival the US.
      Socialism (not communism, not like you know the difference anyway) highly encourages thinking, planning and education.
      There's a reason the first thing that happens in socialist countries is anti-illiteracy programs and free education.
      The Soviet citizens were some of the best educated people on the planet, which might be why they were leaders in medicine, space travel, music and art, cinematography etc etc
      China are going the same way but doing even better, as of 2020 they eradicated poverty, their home ownership rate is the highest in the world, they're the leading innovators in tech, green energy and electric cars for example, almost like you know nothing about either, you uneducated muppet.
      The huge irony here is that you're told to think that ignorant shit by the media, yet you've never seen any proof of it and here you are, proving you've gobbled it like it was a 3 michelin star meal.
