The Grizzly Obstacle Breaching Vehicle

The Grizzly Obstacle Breaching Vehicle

The Grizzly Obstacle Breaching Vehicle development started sometime in the early 90’s, but the exact status of the vehicle is not known and believed to have been cancelled sometime after 2006 or has been put on hold.

The Grizzly Obstacle Breaching Vehicle has an intimidating angled blade which spans 4.2m and a knuckle-arm excavator shovel. Like all breaching vehicles, its purpose is to push through man made defensive obstacles, such as filling in trench’s, driving through mine fields and barbed wire as well as embankments to create a clear path for following vehicles. But the Grizzly was able to do this at almost the same speed/momentum as the following Abrams.
