The Minister for Civil Defense of Yakutia, Dmitry Lepchikov, stated that the authorities will send two wheeled snow and swamp-going vehicles "Bérgen" produced by the Yakut company "Bérgen Moto" to the Russian military. The all-terrain vehicles will be tested in combat conditions.
The government of Yakutia clarified that "Bérgen" differs from "Sokol" quad bikes by its closed body, reinforced with armor plates. The carrying capacity of the all-terrain vehicle exceeds 1 ton.
Snow and swamp-going vehicles "Bérgen" have received good reviews from hunters and fishermen, who appreciated the excellent handling, high cross-country ability on rough terrain and swamps
According to military expert Anatoly Matviychuk, "Bérgen" is designed for transporting personnel and cargo. It is distinguished by its protective functions and has increased cross-country ability.
Sokol quad bikes are also produced in Yakutia, and the equipment is supplied to the military personnel of the Russian Armed Forces. They are designed for driving on dirt roads, on soils with a weak bearing surface, and can overcome water obstacles.
Earlier, the company "Trekol" presented a powerful all-terrain vehicle for off-road driving, the Trekol Arctica Pickup.
