The WX-8 Emergency Rescue Hovercraft is an amphibious hovercraft designed for China's professional emergency rescue and disaster relief industry. It is capable of operating efficiently and maneuverably in a variety of complex terrains, including water surfaces, flood rapids, urban waterlogging, ice surfaces, mudflats, beaches, swamps, and land. It is designed to quickly respond to emergency rescue, flood control, water rescue, and complex geographical environment rescue needs, enabling the timely rescue of trapped individuals and the rapid transportation of disaster relief equipment, supplies, and personnel in harsh conditions.

Versatile and Multi-Purpose

Widely applicable in: flood control and prevention, earthquake and mudslide disaster relief, emergency rescue, field emergency support, water and ice rescue, urban waterlogging, patrol, hydrological survey, fishery law enforcement, and other related industries.

Long Endurance

The total fuel tank capacity of this model is 120L, with a main tank of 80L and an auxiliary tank of 40L, ensuring an operational endurance of no less than 3 hours.

Stable and Reliable Operation in Harsh Weather

Advantages of Hebei Five-Star Power Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft in Rescue Operations

1. The "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft can promptly and quickly survey flood conditions: Floods typically cover vast areas and are often accompanied by severe weather such as strong winds and heavy rain, with rapid water flow causing transportation disruptions and communication failures. Therefore, timely and rapid flood assessment is a top priority. Under harsh conditions, conventional vehicles and boats cannot operate. However, hovercraft are not limited by terrain, hovering over water, ground, shallow waters, and swamps at speeds of 60-100 km/h, enabling timely, rapid, and comprehensive flood assessment to facilitate disaster relief efforts.

2. Hebei Five-Star Power Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft offer greater advantages over conventional speedboats and rubber dinghies in flood control and disaster relief:

While conventional speedboats and rubber dinghies can transport supplies and personnel, playing a significant role in disaster relief, they cannot navigate in rapid currents, unclear river conditions, or when floods and heavy rain submerge streets and alleys. They are also unable to operate in non-navigable areas. Although small boats like rubber dinghies and speedboats can approach targets in rescue operations, they are highly unsafe in rapids, cannot move against the current, and are ineffective in street and alley rescues. In contrast, the "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft, with their hovering capability, can "fly" over any complex terrain, water surfaces, and streets. Additionally, these hovercraft have immense buoyancy, ensuring they never capsize, thus safeguarding both rescuers and those being rescued.

3. The "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft can access areas unreachable by vehicles, boats, or helicopters to perform rescues.

After a disaster, using the "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft for rapid and safe search and rescue missions is the only effective solution. These hovercraft safely hover 0.25-2 meters above water or ground, allowing rescuers to reach areas, streets, communities, and alleys inaccessible to vehicles, boats, or helicopters under extremely harsh conditions. They can overcome obstacles and carry out disaster relief and evacuation at the fastest speed. Equipped with rescue platforms and handrails, rescuers can quickly approach and safely rescue individuals or objects.

4. During urban waterlogging, the "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft can navigate flooded streets for disaster relief.

When floods occur suddenly, breaching dams and residential areas, it is nearly impossible for speedboats and rubber dinghies to navigate submerged streets (due to underwater obstacles like walls, fallen trees, submerged vehicles, etc.) without damaging their propellers. Hovercraft, however, are entirely unaffected by underwater obstacles, enabling them to reach the scene quickly to rescue people and transport supplies.

5. The "Tyrannosaurus" Hovercraft (Amphibious Hovercraft) and Flood Control and Disaster Relief Hovercraft can serve as mobile medical clinics in disaster areas.

In some of the most remote and inaccessible disaster areas, hovercraft can provide clean, safe, and spacious cabins equipped with complete medical facilities to meet medical needs, forming ideal mobile medical clinics.
