The few Belarus tractors that have made it to the states always seem to have fit, finish and performance issues when used in agricultural applications. They were probably a very heavy tractor, but not likely compareable to even an old 1960's american tractor in performance. The idea of using an FWD tractror for military applications is not a new idea, and in WWII we even used slightly modified 2WD tractors as towing motors in all sorts of applications (artillery, air force, navy and even unsticking trucks).
Have a Good Day!

I like this video much better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTDn604ipYY&feature=player_embedded
I watched it a couple of times before I decided the driver was nuts.

Definitely trash can sized jewels, but I,m not sure I would have tried that one with the door shut! I guess he didn't realize that his trailer didn't float well, but think of all the post fording maintenance those two rigs must have needed.....
