UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE — SEARCH & SECURITY

AMT offers Mobile Tactical Drone Operation trucks engineered for Fire Rescue, Forestry Services, Police Departments and all branches of Homeland Security. When first responders require unmatched stability, a keen situational awareness, and the ability to traverse the toughest terrain with uncompromisable space requirements, Tactical Drone Operations offer the perfect balance of 4WD efficiency, spacious operations, and enhanced storage. Our OEM-certified, in-house engineering capabilities allow our expert designs to stretch the limits of a pickup truck chassis, offering the ability to add equipment racks, enhanced monitoring, onboard power, satellite and cellular reachback, and onboard tethered drones that can detached while in flight and flow free-style for search and rescue.

Available in multiple platform configurations including variable drivetrains, engine fuels, bed length, and towing capacity, Mobile Tactical Drone Operations are also capable of supporting masts up to 42′ or antennas up to 1.8m while maintaining a super low profile. AMT’s Mobile Tactical Drone Operations are perfect for first responder applications with unmatched stability, durability, and performance.

Tethered Drone System:

The largest and most capable tethered drone system ever implemented in a vehicle, our state-of-the-art, Mil-Spec Drone system supports multiple brands of aircraft from quad to hex-copter and is designed to support the critical needs of mobile command units, fire support vehicles, and armored personnel carriers. The system supports BOTH free-flight and automatic recharging with autonomous precision landing and a 400’ tether to provide constant power and communication for longer periods. Tethered operation can be separated while in flight to allow the aircraft to fly free. The system will recoil the tether via a parachute and rapidly stow it. Various payloads are available to support your mission from HD camera systems to mesh radios. Let our solutions architects design the perfect system for your application!

Storage Locker

(Rear Storage)

Storage shelving options are as limitless and unique as your station’s requirements, but a popular option is our camera storage lockers. We’ll install customized lockers in the rear of your truck for safe equipment storage (give us the specs in the other requests section). 

Heavy-Duty
Suspension Kit

Custom exterior modifications that raises the overall height of the vehicle, providing additional undercarriage clearance and heavy-duty suspension support. A heavy-duty suspension kit will allow your build to navigate over the toughest terrain to get the job done from anywhere (request a specific height in the other requests section). 

Deployable Display Monitors

(Exterior workstation)

Deployable high NIT rear monitors allow exterior workstations for drone monitoring and video display. Rated for full sunlight and integrated directly into the platform, the monitors can also be articulated around the vehicle for the best presentation angle.

AV Comm Systems

Audio Video and Comms systems are designed to link all of the technology you have selected in your new command center into an intuitive, easy-to-understand design that anyone can operate. Let our experienced engineering team design a system tailored to your exact needs. 

Direct TV

National or nomadic command centers often need to monitor satellite television and cable channels. Monitor The Weather Channel, CNN, MSNBC or FOX to keep up to date with what is happening in the area of a crisis. These next generation small format DSS Antennas are suitable for any command center. 

Off Air Monitoring

Monitoring over-the-air broadcast signals can often assist in managing a local crisis. This option is so inexpensive, no command center should be without the capability. 

Mobile Radar Systems

Radar systems can be used for many purposes from high resolution image detection to weather monitoring. Whatever your application, we have the technology to detect and protect

Drone Detector Systems

Drones are becoming more compact, faster, harder to detect and more durable. Many can fly long distances and carry heavy payloads, and are quite easy to operate, which poses safety and security risks to nearly every type of environment. Working with leading manufacturers like Fortem Technologies and our channel partner FLYMOTION, we can pair you with a drone detection system to meet your needs. 

Optical Thermal Cameras

AMT offers both optical, thermal and combination cameras from leading vendors like FLIR and RuggedCam to provide critical night vision in the most demanding applications. Talk to your AMT rep about your specific needs.
