This permanent 6-wheel driven vehicle is the best in off-road trials. Hence it can climb virtually anywhere out of the water on steep banks.

As this vehicle is designed to be mine proof (6 mm steel armour plating) for military use it is virtually unsinkable in water.

In water twin-jet propulsion app. 10.000 N.
Independent suspension and disc-brake all-round.
Hydraulic winch 50.000 N.
Option is an Atlas 3 Ton crane mounted in the cargo-space behind the cab.

This vehicle will be classified as an agricultural tractor, and historic vehicle (before 1972), therefore low /no tax, depending which country.

We got several vehicles in stock, waiting to be prepared / customized for you...

Started building the Jetranger for a reason:

  • Existing amphibious vehicles too expensive.
  • If you can find one, 90% chance it is in poor condition.
  • Almost every existing model comes with a thirsty petrol engine.

After years of thinking, sketching, calculating and looking at other models, started building the Jetranger based on a 1971 Range Rover.

Started with a lowered stainless steel sub-chassis, welded to the standard RR chassis.
Engine is a new LR300 TDI, moved 30 cm backwards, R380 gearbox with PTO.
Propulsion is a Dowty jet with 5000 N thrust.

Made special seal for axles and propshaft, std gearbox-seal is not the water-retainer.
The new body-panels are made of 4 and 6 mm seawater-resistant aluminium, anodized and powdercoated.

My motto: don’t make it more difficult as necessary, simplicity is best to create.

Anything you want we can make.
