"it's my opinion that your opinion that my opinion is wrong, is wrong"
it looks like some sort of 'special environments' transport.
perhaps a Hyperbaric chamber for Navy divers
it looks to have some sort of massive liquid cooling setup on the back though, perhaps its the mother of all icemakers.. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
a Refueling truck for Nuke powered vessels ?
a Re-arming truck for Nuclear capable delivery systems ?
Whatever is carried in that thing is high dollar/high margin of saftey or exceptionally specialised.
The lower picture clearly shows the airlock between the real world and his tank -although it's seldom used- and the wheels under the whole construction, well... he has to get around, you know?
I'm just surprised there aren't any Save ITF -slogans or banners painted on the sides of the tank... What's got in to you, B? [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

HAH HAH HAH!!! ROFL!
Didn't you guys see this get used in the beginning of the directors cut of ALIENS?
Seriously, I think it's amphibious (SP?) for one thing.
That's a very good seal on the cab there too...
With the airlock I'm thinking bio or chemical response of some sort, or just a damn interesting movie prop...

Yes, that's right. It's what I use to move my tank around when I need to be less noticed (and hence can't just use the anti-grav unit). You're wrong about shopping for groceries though. I was actually out shopping for consoles.

Give that man a cigar! It is a modified version but for what I can't figure out.

after doing a little research the unit on the back looks like a super high pressure compressor, which is exactly what you need for a hyperbaric/decompression chamber.
My guess is its for rescuing RN submariners or some such in remote locations, it would make sense to have a very portable hyperbaric chamber for emergency or rapid deployment work. Having the unit in a dedicated amphibious truck means you could take the freakin thing anywhere with little trouble.
I'll ask some questions of my navy buff mate and get back to you.

[b]Trouble is, it's no longer amphibious as it doesn't have the swim board fitted to the front. (Unless they only fit it when required, to stop someone nicking it [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]).

All I know is that it's cool, and I want one. How much? I gather it's diesel...
(made the US army guys jealous, the Hummer has to have a trailer to carry that much pizza and the trailer gets finky, plus its not amphibious)
That particular example looks to me like a movie prop, but what the hell do I know
