The GAZ Sadko (Russian: Садко) is a Russian built 2.5-ton all-wheel drive cargo truck. The Sadko is produced by the Gorky Automobile Plant (GAZ) and was named after Sadko, a character of Russian medieval epic (bylina), who was an adventurer, merchant and gusli musician from Novgorod.

History

The current GAZ-3308 “Sadko” series of vehicles serves as a replacement for the GAZ-66, which entered production in 1964 and remained in production for approximately thirty-five years. Production of the GAZ-3308 began in 1996 as per military requirements. Commercial and export versions are also available.

The first of the new all-wheel drive trucks was created by the Gorky Automobile Plant in 1996 under the symbol GAZ-33097. Series production models, which received the industry index GAZ-3308 and a new name, "Sadko", began in December 1997. The Russian Army's 2.3-ton truck GAZ-3308 replaced the model GAZ-66-40 -cab-over-engine. On GAZ-3308, a modified (using different fenders with enlarged wheel arches) cab from the GAZ-3309 and drive axles and transmission similar to that used on the GAZ-66-40.

Since 2003, most Sadkos have been equipped with a turbo diesel MM Z D-245.7 (from 2005 emission class Euro-2 from 2013 - D-245.7E4 environmental class Euro 4).

In 2005 there was also a 4-ton model GAZ-33086 Countryman with a twin-tired rear axle, which uses elements of the Sadko.

In 2013, a version of GAZ-33088 Sadko with a turbo-diesel JAMZ-53442 with Euro-4 became available.
