The Predator robotic Vehicle has been designed to provide rugged, reliable robotic capability to EOD and Tactical teams at a reasonable cost. Capable of operating over virtually any type of terrain in any weather condition, this robotic vehicle provides heavy duty manipulation and weapons deployment capability. The Predator provides exceptional performance through the successful integration of the latest in computer based, Command and Control Technologies, modern design and manufacturing processes and field proven operating systems.

Designed and manufactured by Terra Aerospace to meet the needs of a wide cross section of EOD, Hazmat and tactical teams, the Predator comes equipped with more standard features than any other Robotic vehicle of its type in the world market. Items such as Turret rotation, Manipulator Elbow Axis, Shock reducing disruptor mounts, X-Ray deployment systems are standard equipment, not expensive options that increase the "start-up" cost of the Robot..

The Predator features "State of the Art" modular electronics, and computer based controls, with such operator friendly features as 2 way audio, and multi-positional camera system which allows the operator to postion the claw camera at various locations on the vehicle. Command and control of drive, boom and manipulator functions are achieved through the use of proportional speed joysticks for maximum operational simplicity.
