It can travel speeds up to 80 miles an hour.
Although the light-armored military recon vehicle is equipped with a variety of unique features, the hybrid powertrain is one of its most interesting. It comes with batteries and an electrical motor to provide stealthy capabilities during military operations. The vehicle also has a 100 percent all-electric mode. It is powered by a 103-horsepower (77 kW) electric motor and a V6 diesel engine of 300 horsepower (223 kW). With its armored plating, it needs all it can muster.
Its four-wheel steering is another interesting feature. The Scarabee can also use the trick Sterling system to make tight turns on the battlefield. This feature is almost identical to the one found on the GMC Hummer EVO . It’s small size and ability to carry three or four soldiers makes it an ideal vehicle for many purposes. It can travel up to 80 mph (130 km/h) and has a powerful powertrain.
Arquus has presented to the Scarabee in three fashions: Patrol SAS, Reconnaissance, and Security/Counter-Terrorist. The Patrol model features a 12.7-millimeter machine guns, while the Recon version has a 30-mm cannon. Because of its small size, the Scarabee can be carried under a helicopter or on a C-130 plane. It is easy to maneuver and safe for its crew. The driver is even placed forward in the cab. This gives them a clear view of 200 degrees out front, which is crucial in dangerous areas.
