(from C.A.M.I. Press
Release) We have revolutionized the industry with our new
amphibious vehicle, the Hydra-Terra.
A 100% brand new design that is impossible to sink. Yes, 100%
guaranteed unsinkable.
Our vessel is capable of operating in high winds, rains, and floods.
We can drive into an area of heavy flooding and simply boat through
it. This optimizes the options available to search and rescue
operations. You are no longer limited to "land only" or "water only"
rescue apparatus.
The yellow Hydra-Terra
was built for Wonder Bus Tours of Dubai, U.A.E.
The red Hydra-Terra was built for the Prince of Saudi Arabia,
Abdullah Saud
