Who is using what specific make of 4x4 ATV's in Afghanistan, Iraq, etc.? Beside Gators, that is.<<<
Alan,
Since September 11, Polaris has shipped more than 100 of its 4x4 Polaris Sportsman MV to troops destined for overseas deployment.
Some Army Special Forces, Air Force Special Operations and Navy Special Warfare units are evaluating a platform called the Prowler, which is made by the All Terrain Vehicle Corporation, of Orange, California.
TidalForce is a producing a hybrid ATV, that pairs a stock 8 hp Honda gasoline-powered engine with four electric motors.
Individual Marine units have been trying out various ultralight vehicles on their own and are reported to have taken several "test" units of various makes with them on deployment.
Hope this isn't too much info and helps some!
