PFM
Floating Bridge PFM is a bridging system providing continuous and discontinuous crossing of wet gap for main battle tanks, armored vehicles or civilian vehicles. A 100m long bridge can be built in 30 minutes. To best fit the Army’s needs, PFM has two configurations and can be set up as a bridge or a ferry thanks to its modular, autonomous and motorized sections. It is an all-in-one product with no limitations in length of the bridge. |
