AM-50B
Notes: The AM-50B is a scissors bridge mounted on a TATRA T815 Kolos 8x8 truck. On the front of the truck is mounted a dozer blade used to prepare bridging positions and to stabilize the vehicle when the bridge is being deployed. The bridge weighs 5.7 tons, can span a 12.5-meter gap, and takes 7 minutes to lay or recover. Up to eight of these bridges may be laid in series to span larger chasms or bodies of water. The bridges lay on hydraulic power-adjusted trestles (an advantage over most treadway bridges). Each trestle weighs 1.75 tons, and one is supplied with each vehicle. Each span can support 50 tons. This vehicle is used by Czech and Slovakian forces and India.

Notes: There are three variants of this Slovakian minelaying vehicle: a mechanical surface minelayer, a FASCAM rocket system, and a combined FASCAM/mechanical minelayer. The rocket minelayer is similar to the RM-70 multiple rocket launcher (see Czech MRL Vehicles); the mechanical system also used a T-815 Kolos 8x8 chassis; and the combined system uses a single launcher box instead of two, and a single module minelayer. The mechanical minelayer buries the mines, then pats the mines down and fluffs any vegetation.
