Note that the tail, while dragging in the photograph, is quite capable of being used as a means of clearing opposing personnel, and the spikes on the tail can easily be used as cutting edged weapons. The beak up front, on the snout, is at the very least, a lethal weapon in itself, being capable of snapping off limbs and other extruding body parts.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this multipupose creation&#8217;s uses as a weapon of war, it can reproduce at will as long as there is a male example in the vicinity. At least one dozen offspring can be produced at one go.<\/p>\n<p>Maintenance of the amphibious all-terrain SNAPR is extremely cost efficient. Fuel consists of frogs, fish and the occasional small bird stupid enough to admire itself in a pond&#8217;s surface. Mechanical issues are zero, and the working lifespan of a well-maintained SNAPR is about 25 years.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, I&#8217;d say this is probably the smartest idea yet in armored amphibious\/all-terrain transporation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my search for new ideas from the Dept of Defense, I came across this particularly &hellip; <a title=\"Introducing A New and Improved Amphibious Vehicle\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=81447\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Introducing A New and Improved Amphibious Vehicle<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":653,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[213],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-81447","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-your-tax-dollars-at-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81447","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/653"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=81447"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81447\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=81447"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=81447"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=81447"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
