The MZKT-6002 is a versatile vehicle, custom-developed for tough tactical and logistics challenges in military service. With its unique off-road capability and torsional rigidity, the MZKT-6002 sets the benchmark in off-road mobility. Leader in its class, the 3 -, 4 - or 5-axles vehicle is ideal for transporting high-value, complex and sensitive systems such as tactical systems and weapons.

The MZKT-6002 is the new Belarusian military truck in the 8x8 family. It was developed to meet a possible requirement of Belarusian armed forces, but also to be marketed for international customers.

The MZKT-6002 has a low-profile cab. It is made of steel rather than composite materials. The cab accommodates driver and one or two passengers. The cab can be fitted with add-on armor kit as well as protection against mines and IEDs. There is a roof hatch for firing and emergency exit.

The MZKT-6002 is motorized with Caterpillar C15 turbocharged diesel engine, developing 540 hp coupled to an 6-speed automatic transmission. It has an 8x8 configuration with full-time all-wheel drive.

The MZKT-6002 is motorized with a Caterpillar C15 D 6-cylinder in-line four-cylinder, turbo-charged diesel engine that is coupled to a two-speed automatic transmission system. The engine, developed by Caterpillar, generates a maximum power of 403kW and a torque of 2466nm. The vehicle has a 312l fuel tank and can be optionally fitted with an additional 312 fuel tank.

Independent suspension on all wheels is provided by coil springs and heavy shock-absorbers. A front-drive steer axle and a double-reduction rear axle are fitted to afford the central reduction gears with planetary wheel hub reduction. The inter-axle and cross-axle differential locks increase the traction.

The MZKT-6002 truck can reach speeds up to 110 km/h and a cruising range of 1,000 km. It can negotiate grades of up to 70% and side slopes of 40%. It has a ground clearance of 420 mm and a kerb-to-kerb turning radius of 12.5 m.

The vehicle can ford at 1.8m with preparation, cross trenches of 1.45 m, and can climb vertical steps up to 600 mm. Its approach and departure angles are 42° and 42° respectively. It can withstand temperatures ranging from -40°C to 50°C.
