A 9,000-Pound Tank That’s Faster Than a Ferrari

A 9,000-Pound Tank That’s Faster Than a Ferrari :-

After drones took over the skies, Ripsaw is now taking control over land. Ripsaw is the world’s fastest tracked vehicle produced by Howe & Howe Technologies in Maine. Unlike other unmanned ground vehicles (UGV), which are slow, Ripsaw can accelerate to 65 mph in about 3 seconds. By comparison, the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta can accelerate to 62 mph in 3.1 seconds.

Ripsaw, made from tough alloy steel, is very quick and agile and could be used for perimeter defense, surveillance, rescue, border patrol, crowd control and explosive ordnance disposal roles.
