TZ-74
The device is designed to decontaminate combat equipment and other vehicles. The principle of decontamination is based on a stream of hot gases from a jet engine M-701. The TZ-74 can also be used to create smoke screens and extinguish fires. The device operates in pairs (two TZ-74s) to form a single workstation.
It allows for the decontamination, deodorization and disinfection of external surfaces and other (e.g. transport) equipment. It can also be used to mask units by creating a smoke screen and, if necessary, to extinguish fires. Cleaning is carried out with water, which is driven under high pressure through a jet engine nozzle at the rear of the equipment. Depending on the purpose of use, a special (degreasing) solution can be added to the water.
The device is mounted on the chassis of an off-road truck Tatra 148 and is operated from the engineer's box to the left of the nozzle located at the rear of the vehicle. It was introduced to the army in 1975.
