Abstract: The invention relates to a swim arrangement (A) for facilitating amphibious operation of a tracked vehicle (V1). Said tracked vehicle comprises a vehicle body (10) and a two track assemblies (T1, T2) suspendedly connected to the vehicle body for driving the vehicle, each track assembly (T1, T2) comprising a drive means driven endless track (4). The vehicle body comprises under structure portions (12, 14), each under structure portion (12, 14) miming over an upper side (4a) of a track (4) of a track assembly (T1, T2). Each under structure portion (12, 14) is configured to be arranged at a distance from the upper side (4a) of the track (4) during land operation of the vehicle so that a space (S1, S2) is provided. The arrangement (A) comprises means (20, 30, 100) for reducing said space (S1, S2) so as to, during swimming operation, reduce the flow of water between the under structure portion (12, 14) and the upper side (4a) of the track (4) caused when the tracks (4) are driven.

Abstract: Disclosed is an arrangement for facilitating amphibious operation of a tracked vehicle comprising one or more vehicle bodies and at least one track assembly pair per vehicle body. Said track assembly pair is connected to the vehicle body, the track assembly pair comprising two track assemblies for driving the vehicle. Each track assembly comprises a driven endless track arranged to run over a set of wheels of the track assembly and, in connection to amphibious operation, being configured to operate under the water surface by rotating in the water providing a flow of water. The arrangement comprises gas provision device configured to, in connection to swimming operation, introduce a gaseous medium into the flow of water at the upper side of the track of the respective track assembly so as to reduce the amount of water in connection to said upper side.
