Description of the car Tiger GAZ-2330

Armored car Tiger is in service Russian army and the police, not only in Russia, but also in some countries of the world.

At the very beginning, the Tiger car was developed specifically for the United Arab Emirates, which had previously purchased american cars Hammer showing themselves off better side during operation in a specific area. Through representatives of the Czech auto company Tatra, the Emirates turned to the GAZ plant for the development of an analogue of the American Hummer. Since the terms were limited, GAZ offered to use existing components, so they were taken for basic framework wheels and suspension from the BTR-80.

In 2001, the Tiger was presented in United Arab Emirates, and then the opportunity was considered to sell and assemble these armored vehicles on the spot under the Nimr brand (translation - "Tiger"). Unfortunately, the contract was terminated, and several prototypes remained in the country of the end customer. Later, the Renault company, commissioned by the Arabs, made a car similar to the Tiger, under the Nimr brand.

On the Russian plant GAZ continued to improve their development and the Tirg car was released and offered to work in special forces. This car was first evaluated in the Moscow SOBR in the performance of SPM-1 with the protection of the 3rd class of the Russian GOST, SPM-2 and other modifications.

Characteristics Tiger GAZ-2330

Armored car GAZ-2330 Tiger is frame machine- an all-welded armored body is installed on the frame. Protection according to the 5th class of Russian GOST. Armor control is quite tight, since every tenth armor element is shot back. Tirg is equipped with armored glass Magistral.

Under the hood on gas lifts on the first batch, Brazilian-made Covers ICEs were installed, but since the Tirg is a dual-use vehicle, localization should have been maximum. As a result, the Tiger is equipped YaMZ engine 534 of the new generation, assembled in separate workshops of the Yaroslavl Motor Plant.

The cabin is equipped with air conditioning and anti-fragmentation protection AOP.

Dimensions of the Tiger car, depending on the modification:
Width 2200-2300 mm
Length 4640-5700 mm
Height 2000-2500 mm
Clearance 400 mm
Power reserve up to 900 km

Initially, the GAZ 2330 Tiger was planned exclusively for the RF Armed Forces. It was first introduced in 2005 in the UAE. The fact is that at that time the army of the above state planned to purchase American Hummers, the deal dragged on, so the Arabs ordered Russia to develop a new armored car that can be operated at temperatures up to 60 degrees, investing about 65 million dollars in this business. A year and a half later, this version was presented to the customer.

However, she did not suit them, after which the Hammers were purchased. Strange, but now the Tiger is of interest to many states, and not only. Soon, the GAZ management decided that they needed a version of an SUV based on the Tiger. So, on this moment you can buy a GAZ Tiger civil, its price will be about 120,000 in US currency.

Appearance

The appearance of the version for everyday use is not much different from its army counterpart, except that there are no armor plates. Round lights. Oddly enough, they fit perfectly with common square shapes, and parking lights with direction indicators borrowed from the well-known UAZ.

Let's look at the dimensions of this car. I must say, it's small, it's just huge.

Length - 5.7 meters
Width - 2.3 meters
Height - 2.3 meters
Ground clearance - 40 cm

Impressive. Honestly, it's hard to imagine how this giant can even fit in one lane. The track width, front and rear, is 1.84 meters. Only in a few, and maybe in one state, the designers could come up with the idea to make an everyday production car out of a combat vehicle.

The price is much less than the military because there is practically no equipment here. However, whatever one may say, the wheels had to be left the same. Language does not dare to call this car an SUV. Its permeability is much higher.

Interior

Inside, this car looks more casual than it first appears. So, for example, there are all the same speedometer and tachometer and the transmission control levers are located on the central tunnel. It can be installed air conditioning, climate control, heated seats, ventilation and servo adjustments, which are even in height. It is already clear that this is a domestic answer to the Hummers, which are also distinguished by luxury.

The panel looks unusual, because the main instruments are located on the dashboard, and the secondary ones are placed above the center console, which the designers prudently raised above the floor. Tiger tuning has already become widespread. In general, these operations can be done at the factory, such as, for example, upholstery of an elephant with suede or alcantara, installation of navigation, multimedia systems.

Based on the size, one can easily conclude that back rows, of which there are two, plenty of space. The leisure of these passengers can also be taken care of by installing displays with wireless headphones in the headrests. Perhaps the SUV has no competitors on domestic market, but it’s not so easy to buy the civilian version of the GAZ 2330 Tiger, since each car that is produced at AMZ has already been ordered by a specific buyer, so you have to queue up.

Specifications

As mentioned above, the development took only a year and a half. Such short term justified by the fact that most of the details were taken from the BTR-80. For example, if you look closely, you can find wheels from this technique, which are equipped with auto-pumping with a digital controller.

We will not talk about the suspension, it is almost completely borrowed from the armored personnel carrier. It is worth noting that the depth of the ford to be overcome is an incredible 1.2 meters. For this, a snorkel with a filter is specially brought to the roof. Its carrying capacity is about one and a half tons. There is a five-door option, or a pickup truck, but the latter option is rarely seen on the roads. In the entire history of production, only 7 of these were sold to private hands.

Either domestic or foreign Cummins can act as a power unit. The production of the first was established at Yaroslavl engine plant. It has only 4 cylinders and 4.45 liters of displacement. The engine is multi-fuel and produces 215 horses. But that's not all. The main advantage of the domestic power unit over the foreign one is the torque of 700 Nm.

Of course, the monster's expense is also appropriate. Cruising speed the car is 60 km / h, and the maximum is 160. in the first case, the consumption of diesel fuel does not exceed 35 liters. Well, if you "turn on the heat", then the figure becomes unpredictable. The turbine starts to work already at 1000 rpm, an intercooler is installed for cooling.

You can also buy a GAZ 2330 Tiger with the world-famous Cummins 205. This index corresponds to the power of the power unit, and its volume (engine) is 5.9 liters. In this case, the torque is 687 Nm. As you can see, such a motor is significantly inferior in performance to its competitor from Yaroslavl.

The maximum speed of a car with such an engine does not exceed 140 km / h. The manufacturer claims consumption within 15 liters. To be honest, for an almost 6-liter engine, this is crazy nonsense, even though it is diesel. According to a few owners, the consumption exceeds 25 liters, and if you cross the mark of 100 km / h, you can go up to 40 liters per hundred kilometers. What to believe is not at all clear. However, you can choose an average value. It should also be noted that Tiger buyers are unlikely to be concerned about such a characteristic as consumption.

As a gearbox, a mechanic with 6 steps is used, to which a transfer case is “fastened”. GAZ Tiger civilian version easily overcomes loose and settled snow up to one and a half meters. Downshift has a ratio of 1:4.5. in this way, incredible torque is transmitted to the wheels, more than 2000 Nm.

Additional equipment is also offered with the car. A winch with a pulling force of 4 tons, a kengurin, which has been tested and can withstand a weight of up to 12 tons, will be installed here. So, for example, a frontal impact with a concrete block at a speed of 40 km / h does not bring any damage to the car. Also, protection is installed under the crankcase, and on the roof, regardless of the type of body, will be installed forwarding trunk. The headlights can be made on a xenon basis, and the position lights on an LED, along with direction indicators.

Conclusion

Perhaps it's time to find out how much this miracle of technology costs. For a GAZ 2330 Tiger, the price starts at 3 million rubles. AT initial configuration, which is logical, a foreign unit will be presented, but the domestic one is offered in more expensive versions, which at the moment there are about 10 pieces. As already mentioned, buying a model is not easy. First of all, state defense orders are carried out, and then civilian ones.

In addition, GAZ Tiger civil cannot be bought in a foreign country. They are sold exclusively to citizens. Russian Federation. The Arzamas plant produces only a few dozen of these cars a year, since the assembly, as the manager admits, is “screwdriver”. Not surprising, for power structures, where the Tigers are delivered first of all, you need unsurpassed quality and reliability.

One of the prototypes of the car "Tiger" at the show in Bronnitsy, August 2002

The developer of the modern family of vehicles "Tiger" is the Military Industrial Company LLC (VPK, Moscow) together with GAZ OJSC (Nizhny Novgorod) and is produced by the Arzamas Machine-Building Plant (Arzamas).

In 2006, the STS "Tiger" was adopted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

Production capabilities of AMZ for 2008-2010 - 100 pieces per year, can be increased to 500 pieces per year - it is curious that in this form the information first appeared in 2008 and later at the end of 2010 again appeared in the media in the same form. In 2010, for the needs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, deliveries of SPM-1 GAZ-2330 vehicles are being carried out.

In December 2011, information appeared in the media, confirmed by the leadership of the Military Industrial Company LLC (VPK, Moscow) that in 2014 the purchase of Tiger and Tiger-M vehicles for the Russian Armed Forces would be stopped . As of December 2011 in various modifications more than 500 vehicles were produced: for the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB, the FSO, excluding exports.

GAZ Tiger is a multi-purpose SUV designed Russian concern GAZ and released to the consumer market in 2002. The car turned out to be so successful that then its army variation was released - the GAZ-2975 Tiger with an armored body and laminated glass that can withstand a direct hit by a bullet. It is interesting that initially these cars were developed by order of the UAE, and after the order was completed they were also released to the Russian consumer market.

It looks like Gaz 2330 Tiger

They were first presented at the end of 2001 in Abu Dhabi at an exhibition dedicated to developments in the military sector.

Naturally, the GAZ-2330 Tiger has four-wheel drive(base 4x4), the ability to block the differential (that is, switch to single-wheel drive auto mode), has increased cross-country ability. Clearance - 400 mm, which is more than enough to move in the most difficult conditions off-road. However, the weight of such a unit is about 6 tons. A little later, the manufacturer released a modification of the GAZ-233001 Tiger car, which had similar technical characteristics, but already had an unarmored body. Due to this, the weight of the car was reduced to almost 3 tons.
Engine development for this car handled by Cummins.

Car engine gas 2330 Tiger

The classic version of the car used power unit Cummins B205, which produced 204 hp. and was turbocharged. This was more than enough to develop a speed of 120-140 km / h with a full load (the same 6 tons). The same unit later migrated to the army version vehicle. At the time of the start of sales of the civilian variation, it was estimated at $120,000. And it was relatively small cost, given that the car was protected in the second class, that is, it was quite suitable for combat operations. Naturally, in the civilian version, he has undergone many changes regarding sound insulation, installed equipment, but the principle of operation remained identical to that originally specified.

Features GAZ Tiger

Even directly at the exhibition, it was demonstrated how the civilian Tiger easily climbed the dirt surface at an angle of 45 °.

At the same time, its suspension was completely independent, that is, each of the wheels had the ability to lower / rise regardless of the parallel one. Due to this, the car easily overcame any obstacles on the road in the form of cobblestones, pits, and all-wheel drive made it easy to get out even from deep mud puddles.

Capabilities of the civilian GAZ-2330

GAZ-2330, even in the factory configuration, included a power steering, which made it very easy to control it, pneumatic boosting of the brakes (which in fact were hydraulic). Suspension - torsion bar, which, according to the assurances of the manufacturer, easily coped with overcoming barriers with a height of 1.2 m.

Civil modification of the car GAZ 2330 Tiger

Its price is from 80,000 dollars at the moment. By the way, they are produced today, but in total 1200 models were produced (mostly on order). Despite the very efficient engine, the Tiger consumed only 25 liters of fuel per 100 km, which is considered very economy mode operation.

At the same time, the motor continued to work in almost any conditions, be it a 30-degree frost or a 50-degree heat. A capacious radiator with liquid cooled(Tosol-40 or Tosol-60, depending on modification).

It should be mentioned that a 205-horsepower engine was installed in the traditional Tiger, while a 195-horsepower engine was installed in the Tiger 2. The latter consumed only 22 liters, but gave out almost identical power, allowing you to accelerate to 100 km / h in just 32 seconds.

Tiger car interior design

The maximum speed limit is 160 km / h, however, it was possible to achieve it only under reference conditions. In the "field" it was possible to reach only 127 km / h with a minimum load (only 2 crew members, without additional equipment).

GAZ-2330 "Tiger"- Russian multi-purpose vehicle off-road, armored car, army off-road vehicle. Produced at the Arzamas Machine-Building Plant, with YaMZ-5347-10 (Russia), Cummins B-205 engines. Some early models were equipped with GAZ-562 (licensed Steyr), Cummins B-180 and B-215 engines.

History of creation

Bin Jabr Group Ltd (BJG) from the UAE acted as the direct customer of the multi-purpose vehicle, having allocated 60 million US dollars for the development and production of prototypes. The end customer was the King Abdullah II Design and Development Bureau (KADDB) of the Jordanian King Abdullah II. The main executor and coordinator of the project was a subsidiary of the Gorky Automobile Plant (JSC GAZ) CJSC Industrial Computer techologies"(PKT). The first samples of Tiger HMTV were presented in Abu Dhabi at International exhibition weapons IDEX-2001.

The customer liked the cars, but as a result, the contract for the supply of the Tiger was never signed, however, in Jordan in Al Dulail, the Arab-Jordanian joint venture Advanced Industries of Arabia (AIA, 80% of the shares from BJG) began production of identical Nimr armored vehicles in June 2005 in various designs.

So GAZ had a backlog - a car developed and ready for mass production. Several cars of the second series were assembled at GAZ - with a different appearance and interior. It was they who, under the name GAZ-233034 "Tiger", were presented at MIMS-2002.

After at the end of the same year two prototypes of the car entered the Moscow SOBR for trial operation, the leadership of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation became interested in the car and acted as the customer for the Tigers. Mass production Tigr vehicles were organized at the Arzamas Machine-Building Plant (AMZ), where it is carried out to this day. On the Gorky Automobile Plant Tiger cars are no longer produced.

Currently, AMZ OJSC (part of the management perimeter of Military Industrial Company LLC) is mass-producing following models car "Tiger":

GAZ-233034 - SPM-1 "Tiger" ballistic protection level for class 3;
GAZ-233036 - SPM-2 "Tiger" ballistic protection level according to class 5;
GAZ-233014 "Tiger" - an army version of an armored vehicle;
KShM R-145BMA "Tiger" - command and staff vehicle;
GAZ-233001 "Tiger" - off-road vehicle in an unarmored five-door body

Design

The car is designed to transport people and various goods on roads and off-road. It is a frame structure chassis that carries the main part of the units and the body. The car body is all-metal one-volume five-door with cargo compartment, designed to carry four people and up to 1500 kg of cargo (armored three-door single-volume, designed to carry 6-9 people and 1200 kg of cargo - for army and police versions of the vehicle). cargo compartment separated from the passenger compartment by a partition, equipped with seats that can additionally accommodate 2-4 people.

AT standard equipment car includes: power steering, independent torsion bar suspension all wheels with hydraulic shock absorbers and anti-roll bars, transfer case with the possibility of locking the center differential, with self-locking limited slip differentials, wheel reduction gears, automatic tire inflation with electronic control, preheater, electric winch.

On the GAZ-233001 "Tiger" can be additionally installed: air conditioning; audio system; power windows; additional heater; independent heater; Anti-blocking system.

The center differential lock is activated by a button on the panel, and the lowering transmission row is activated by a lever. Cross-axle differentials - cam, self-locking. Borrowed from the armored personnel carrier, as well as the wheel suspension itself on double wishbones. In addition, a centralized wheel inflation system was also taken from the armored personnel carrier.

The body of the armored versions of the "Tiger" is welded from heat-treated armor plates 5 mm thick (7 mm for SPM-2), after which it is tempered to relieve internal stresses. Armored vehicle heavier than usual, with a steel body, by 700 kg. The armored body turned out to be so strong that it was possible to completely do without a separate frame, like on armored personnel carriers. But in order to unify the armored body made removable. So on the same chassis you can install different bodies- closed passenger, armored, with cargo platform. "Tiger" can carry one and a half tons of cargo.

Engine Cummins B205, six-cylinder in-line, turbocharged 205 hp / 150 kW, manufactured by the American corporation CUMMINS INC.

The cost of a civilian "Tiger" will be from 100 to 120 thousand dollars, depending on the modification.
