Orlik 101 FAMO Ruubezahl z przyczepą Sd.Ah.35

The FAMO Rubezahl was a German tracked tractor from the interwar period and World War II. The vehicle was powered by a single 50hp engine that was synchronized with a 4-speed (3 forward gears - one reverse) manual gearbox. The first copy was ready in 1932. In the same year, mass production began, which lasted until 1944. The overall length of the vehicle was 330 cm, with a width of 154.5 cm and a curb weight of 4,700 kilograms.

The FAMO Rubezahl was commissioned by the German Reichswehr, which was looking for a new multi-purpose tracked tractor at the end of the 1920s. Design and research work lasted from 1928 to 1932. Finally, a tractor with a relatively low maximum speed was created, but capable of towing loads of several tons in difficult terrain conditions. In addition, the vehicle was relatively easy to use and operate. Due to the high qualities of the vehicle, it quickly found its way to the civil market, but also to the Lufthansa airline, which used it to tow planes. The FAMO Rubezahl tractor was used by the Wehrmacht in World War II as a light artillery tractor, but mainly in provisioning units.
