这 GAZ-46， 军队指定马夫 （俄罗斯， [ • 小型浮动车），是俄罗斯制造的轻型四轮驱动两栖军车，于20世纪50年代投入使用，自此被许多东方集团盟军使用。在第二次世界大战期间，加拿大、英国和美国向俄罗斯运送了大量军事物资。其中包括吉普车，卡车和两栖车辆，如6×6 DUKW和4×4福特GPA。后者被用来帮助人和装备穿越东欧的许多河流，与德国人作战。看到这种车辆的优点，战后，俄罗斯决定开发两种类似的车辆，使用国内汽车零部件，BAV，相当于DUIKW，和MAV，相当于福特GPA。

General Characteristics and Role
The GAZ-46 MAV (Maly Avtomobil Vodorodny, or “Small Water Vehicle”) was a Soviet light amphibious military vehicle developed shortly after World War II. It was essentially a direct, slightly scaled-down copy of the American Ford GPA ‘Seep’ amphibious jeep, which had been supplied to the Soviet Union under the Lend-Lease program during the war. The GAZ-46 was designed to provide troop and equipment transport across water obstacles for reconnaissance, liaison, and light patrol duties. It featured a boat-like hull and a conventional four-wheel-drive system on land, complemented by a propeller for water propulsion. It served primarily with the Soviet Army and Warsaw Pact nations.

Powerplant and Mobility
- Engine: 1 x GAZ-M20 four-cylinder petrol engine (used in the GAZ-M20 Pobeda car).
- Power Output: 52 hp (39 kW).
- Maximum Speed (Road): 90 km/h (56 mph).
- Maximum Speed (Water): 10 km/h (6.2 mph; 5.4 kn).
- Propulsion (Water): Single propeller, driven by a power take-off from the transmission.
- Land Transmission: Manual, 4 forward gears, 1 reverse gear, 2-speed transfer case.
Design and Legacy
- Design Basis: Directly based on the Ford GPA (Seep), but modified to utilize standard Soviet GAZ-M20 Pobeda car components for easier logistics and repair.
- Wartime Influence: The need for an indigenous amphibious vehicle arose from the success and utility of the American amphibious jeeps used during the war.
- Construction: Featured a boat-like, welded steel hull for watertight integrity and a conventional automotive chassis within the hull.
- Successor: The GAZ-46 was eventually replaced by more advanced amphibious vehicles and specialized armored personnel carriers in the Soviet military.
