Gigantic self-inflating tires turn this bulletproof combat all-terrain vehicle into a tiny tank that floats and swims… link |

IIRC one of these was on the show "Diesel Bothers." Pretty dang cool! |

Nice looking but not much else. Strange article, describes it as a rolling fortress. Well maybe against bullets but unfortunately there are other weapons around apart from AK:s and carbines… Space for two (2)!! troopers… Not much. But apperantly it has space for two beds, so the troopers can sleep comfortably. I think stealth is more important for recon troops than being comfy… Fun looking but useless. |

If you're up in the Arctic, you need the beds inside. Definitely an interesting thing, I can see minimally-armored versions getting added to inventory for disaster relief work. |

disaster relief absolutely but for warfare? You do not need vehicles with beds in the arctic, they are nice but not necessary for survival. Most people who ski there use tents. |

SHERP is made in Russia and is a civilian ATV though it was being shown at the European military exposition |
