The Oshkosh Defense Wheeled Tanker.

The Oshkosh wheeled tanker, designed for the UK Ministry of Defence and available in the United States, is a highly reliable, high-performing tactical vehicle vital to supporting forward locations. The 3,960-gallon Tactical Aircraft Refueller, 5,280-gallon Close Support Tanker and 4,755-gallon Close Support Tanker for Water are all towed by the 6x6 Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) tractor – a combat-proven vehicle that provides rugged reliability, performance and maneuverability. It significantly expands the on- and off-road supply capabilities of the tankers. Even in the harshest terrain, in the most extreme environments, the wheeled tankers will be there to support the mission.

UralAZ 5423 8x8

These look like KamAZ, but are actually UralAZ trucks:


UralAZ 5423


UralAZ 5423

P.S.: These trucks are made by UralAZ. The chassis, engine, etc., are from UralAZ, but the cabin is from KamAZ.
