There are over 5,000 different types
of army vehicles and each
has a different style.
The Dune Buggie can travel up to 85 miles per hour on sand. They also can
have two cockpits.
The Tank is a vehicle almost like a Dune Buggie but it’s a lot heavier.
Like the Buggie it can run on sand, but slower. It can only go about 15 miles
per hour. The tank’s armor is stronger than a Dune Buggie’s. The protection
is also titanium but it is 3 inches thick. Tanks can be equipped with a machine
gun or a rocket launcher, and all tanks have a cannon.
Jets are vehicles that move in the sky. They travel about 1,200 miles per
hour. They are mostly equipped with machines guns or rocket launchers.
Submarines can go down to about 5,000 feet underwater. The men in the
submarine have to learn how to get out of the vehicle while at the depth of
about 2,000 feet! When they’re in battle they shoot missiles that have a
heat-detecting device on the front of it so it is hard for an enemy to get away.
Hummers can go just as fast as Dune Buggies but they don’t run on sand.
Every other terrain it can easily move on. On the roof of the vehicle, an
opening is made for a machine gun/grenade launcher and the gunner. In the back
of the vehicle guns, people, and other supplies can be stored for backup. The
windows are taken out to prevent reflection on the glass. If the enemy sees the
reflection they can easily attack the Hummer.
