The Zubr Transport is the Soviets' amphibious transport vehicle.

Description

The Zubr is the Soviet amphibious transport, capable of ferrying large amounts of forces over water. They can transport both infantry and armor to any location and keep it out of harm's way. Though these transports are armed and can swat away light or half-hearted attacks from both ground and air, they should not be put in harm's way to prevent severe and unnecessary losses as they are not as hardy as the animal they are named after.
