Camion - Russia/URSS: libri - storia e modelli

Samochody użytkowe RWPG

This is the first Polish publication covering commercial vehicles produced in Comecon countries, the Eastern Bloc, from after World War II until 1990.

The author explains the structure of Comecon and defines commercial vehicles. He presents the manufacturers, their production focus, and selected models of vans, trucks, and buses, including their design, operation, and technical specifications.

Vehicles are grouped by country: Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, the German Democratic Republic, Poland, Romania, Hungary, and the Soviet Union. Each manufacturer and its vehicles are introduced with background chapters on the development of the automotive industry in that country.

Frontlenker aus Russland - GAZ, MAZ und Co.

NUOVO

This illustrated book focuses on cab-over-engine trucks from ZIS, ZIL, MAZ, BelAZ, GAZ, and others, which the former Soviet Union used in its efforts to compete on the global market. It includes vehicles produced not only in Russia, but also in the former Soviet republics of Ukraine and Belarus.

The variety of types, models, and series was vast - reflecting the size of the country itself - and full documentation is scarce. Despite this, Frank Rönicke succeeds in bringing order to the complex history of Soviet cab-over-engine truck development. The book presents the most important models with clear text and rare images.

Russlands schwere Hauber - Ural, KrAZ & Co. - Die großen Lkw der UdSSR

The history of the Soviet truck industry began with licensed designs from Italy and the United States but gained momentum only after World War II.
Like in many regions, conventional trucks with long hoods dominated the appearance of Soviet heavy vehicles, as they were seen as more suitable for long distances and rough terrain. In contrast, cab-over-engine trucks became standard in the West from the 1970s onward.

The political changes of the early 1990s ended the Soviet Union but not the popularity of hooded trucks in Eastern Europe. These vehicles remained common in the region's truck manufacturing well into the 2000s.
This illustrated book by Frank Rönicke focuses on Soviet heavy-duty hooded trucks, especially those used by the East German NVA. It covers key manufacturers such as Ural, KrAZ, ZIS, ZIL, MAZ, and BelAZ.
