The IGUANA PRO is an amphibious platform designed for law enforcement, defense, homeland security, and surveillance operations. Its track system allows it to land on any kind of terrain, including sand, pebbles, and mud, and it can climb steep slopes on soft ground. With 360° rotation and high maneuverability, it can perform precise movements as necessary.
The platform's semi-planning, wave-piercing hull provides great stability and allows it to reach a top speed of 57 knots on water. The hull and superstructure are made of GRP with carbon fiber reinforcement, which provides strength and durability while keeping the overall weight manageable.
The IGUANA PRO has an overall length of 9.8 m, a beam of 3.4 m, and a draft of 0.55 m, making it relatively compact and easy to transport and deploy. Its maximum land speed is 7 km/h, and it has a maximum payload of 1200 kg.
Overall, the IGUANA PRO is a versatile and capable platform that could be useful in a range of applications requiring both water and land-based mobility.
