SR1 (Subterranean Rover - 1)

Description
Built specifically for subterranean operation, SR1 is ideal for coal and precious metal mining.  The chassis is engineered out of 4130 chrome molly tubing to withstand the harshest of environments while offering extremely good fatigue resistance.  The chassis is then further strengthened by completely webbing the tubular structure with .125" plate steel.  With 14" of suspension, SR1 offers a smooth 6 person ride while also reducing the jarring forces throughout the frame.
SR1 is engineered ground up to not only be the most durable mining personnel transport vehicle ever assembled but also to be extremely modular and easily maintained.   Built with "over the shelf" parts, SR1 maintenance is simple and inexpensive.  Powered by a tier 3 Cummins 4QSB, SR1 is powerful and emission certified for mining operations.  SR1 is designed to replace the less reliable and more complex Humvee.  It is also designed to be more comfortable and less complex than current industry standard hydrostatic drive human transport mining vehicles.
