Historical Description and Usage

The Caterpillar D9R bulldozer in the Doobi version with slat armor is one of the most important engineering tools of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). This vehicle has been adapted for operation in environments threatened by gunfire or explosive devices, thanks to the installation of special armor plates and a set of protective slats (so-called slats), which protect, among other things, against RPG rounds. The D9R Doobi was widely used during the conflict in the Gaza Strip and in military operations in the Middle East, providing protection for operators and vital support for building fortifications and removing obstacles.
