Ideal for tsunami and hurricane flood relief, VIKING gives emergency response teams immediate access to the water. The VIKING-2992 amphibious vehicle is designed to support the needs of professional search and rescue services and accommodates up to seven SAR crew members with ample room for dive gear and rescue equipment. The vehicle's powerful water jet propulsion enables it to ford or maintain position even in fast flowing currents.

The VIKING-2992 is designed for amphibious rescue for flood relief and could be used by rescue and first responder team for areas exemplified by the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina or the Japanese Tsunami

On March 11 2.46pm local time, Japan was hit by an 8.9 earthquake triggering a Tsunami.

  • Brilliant design

  • where can I purchase one in Canada or import

  • looks like you need to put better/more powerful waterjets so it can be used in swift currents that being said, looks like an impressive beast, but those tires look like they'd never get you through a mudbog. improvements i'd make are either twin jets or larger impeller for more thrust in water or ducted prop?, and actual lugs on the tires, more alike what ARGO's have.
