The Praga V3S was a Czech military truck that was developed and produced in Czechoslovakia in the 1950s and later produced in various versions and modifications. This truck was used by both the Czechoslovak army and later by the army of the Czech Republic. It had a sturdy frame and all-wheel drive (6x6), which allowed it to handle difficult terrain well. It was capable of carrying a load of around 5 tonnes. The Praga V3S was used both for military purposes, where it was used to transport military equipment and soldiers, and for civilian purposes, as a truck and construction machine.
