Rescue teams dealing with the aftermath of storms, hurricanes, tornados and tsunamis have few vehicles and limited equipment capable of reaching affected areas that are underwater. The fully amphibious Aton Impulse VIKING-2992 is a unique breed of new vehicle able to traverse land, water and the difficult litoral zone to reach flood areas to rescue victims.

Fitted with giant ultra-low ground pressure 50" tyres and internal ballast for floatation, the VIKING-2992 is able to smoothly transition, fully loaded, between and water while maintaining its position using its integral water-jet power to provide rescue teams with a stable platform from which to launch search and rescue operations in water currents of up to 10 knots.

HURRICANE IRENE, 2011

Hurricane Irene is closing in on the U.S. Atlantic coast on Friday, triggering emergency preparations that included unprecedented mandatory evacuations in New York City as the massive storm approaches.

"All indications point to this being a historic hurricane," Obama said.

The National Hurricane Center said hurricane force winds extended outward up to 90 miles from Irene's center, while tropical storm force winds extended out up to 290 miles, giving the storm a vast wind field width of nearly 600 miles.

Irene will be the first hurricane to hit the U.S. mainland since Ike pounded Texas in 2008.
