Minnesota-based Polaris Industries Inc. is hyping their new ATV specially modified for the U.S. military forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. The ATVs are modifications of the Polaris Sportsman 700 and are designed to be dropped from a C-130 cargo plane.
According to a Business Journal article on the new ATV, some of the ground breaking "military only" technologies include: infrared lights that allow soldiers to use night-vision goggles, reinforced tires and special racks that will carry twice the cargo as the consumer-built model. Unfortunately, these special features are not available to the average consumer.
