Looks like wheel track hybrid

Otherwise the hull is def for amphibious use (the term "capability" suits better), shape of bow and exhaust at engine top indicate this. but not high water speed, since no hydroplane at the front of the hull.

It could also be that the wheels can be raised make the craft more hydrodynamic, indicated by the large amount of space above the axle.


I presume its for swampy/jungle terrain as recce or similar.



Does somebody recognizes the forklift type/model, then we can decue max. Weight of the vehicle transported

The large empty space in the wheel arch could be because it's lifted and the suspensions are hanging low. Look at any car sitting on a lift and you'll see large empty spaces there. Given the size and weight of this thing it could be an unmanned vehicle.

Of course my first impression was a bathtub on wheels

That definitely appears to be an unmanned vehicle, likely an amphibious one. It looks like the track assemblies can be tucked away into the 'wheel arches', making them flush with the bottom of the vehicle when it's traveling in water.

It's a long shot, but there is a chance this is the same unmanned amphibious vehicle seen here.

It also reminds me of this much larger unmanned amphibious boat unveiled a couple of years ago.
