Amphibious vehicle DUKW-353 (unofficial verbal name — Duck, from English — duckling). The production of this machine was started in April 1941 by the General Motors concern together with the New York shipbuilding company Sparkman and Stephens. A lot of things happened with this car for the first time. For the first time, an amphibious truck was mass-produced, for the first time all bridges were equipped with single-pitched wheels that follow each other and do not create additional resistance to movement, for the first time they were equipped with special ten-layer elastic tires that can be operated at low pressure, which dramatically increased the wheel bearing surface and cross-country ability on weak soils, for the first time it was designed and applied to Chassis No. 2005 is a fundamental innovation — centralized control of tire air pressure. The boat was not a load—bearing structure - inside the hull there was a conventional ACKWX 353 chassis with minor changes to the nodes. He joined the Red Army from the USA under Lend-Lease in 1943-44 — 586 amphibians.
