New Chinese Light Weight All Terrain (Amphibious?) Airborne 8x8...Think Polaris RZR but better...

Thanks to MicMac80 for the link!



Soldiers from the 13th Group Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army recently invented a brand new combat mode based on new concepts and ideas in their military exercise to promote their training efficiency.

The new combat mode is characterized by small battle groups and all-terrain vehicles which are 8-wheel driven to pass various obstacles of up to 0.4 meters in height and 1.2 meters in width. The all-terrain vehicle can hold six soldiers, be equipped with mortars and rocket guns and has the abilities of field combating and air defense.
"These are the all-terrain vehicles that enable our infantry to carry weight five times more and maneuver six times faster than the ordinary ones, addressing the difficulties our infantry often meets in their maneuvering on the battlefield," said Yu Jianhua, a company commander of the 13th Group Army.
Wow.  Kinda like this.  Wonder if they will sell civilian versions in the US?
