- "It's Beauty and the Beast."
- — Advertisement for the Civilian Warthog
The Civilian Warthog, simply referred to as the "Hog" in advertisement or "Yellow/Golden Warthog", is the civilian version of the popular United Nations Space Command.[1]
Design details
Designed and manufactured by AMG Transport Dynamics, the three and half-ton civilian edition of the M12 FAV Warthog is available in a wide range of colors, trim, and equipment specifications.[1] This heavy duty off-road vehicle is extremely popular with off-world explorers. Compared to the military version, this is a luxurious automobile, with trans-system GPS, omni-directional networked surround sound, complete user-specific voice control, a highly efficient long range power cell and the capability to drive itself.
Editions
2549 Model
- "Drive with reckless abandon in the new 12th-gen Hog. Comfort, luxury, bone-crushing power; it's beauty and the beast."
- — Warthog advertisement
The last revision (2549) had less power than the 2553 model per wheel in terms of horsepower and kilo-wattage. As with every other iteration of the Hog, each wheel has an independent drive-by-wire electric motor, with power generated by a forward-housed low-profile hydrogen I/C plant. The hydrogen fuel is burned at very high temperature with a synthetic carbon and silicon catalyst to achieve better fuel consumption.
2553 Model
The most recent 2553 edition features a Graf/Hauptman solar/saline actuator capable of converting up to 12 liters of fresh, brackish, or salt water into hydrogen, with increased efficiency allowing the vehicle to get a range of around 200 kilometers after an overnight condensation capture. It has advanced computer systems that allow a perfect distribution of power to every wheel over any surface and is only prone to flipping in hard-bank turns. Thanks to an increased structural rigidity and gas-inflated restraints, this vehicle holds the honor of having the highest passenger safety rating of any recreation vehicles in 2553.
The standard model starts at a hefty 86,000 UN Credits. A manual-transmission version stickers at UNCr 81,000, while the limited edition wood-trimmed Classic Edition with winch, tow and luggage rack tops out at a price of UNCr 91,000.
Trivia
- A billboard for a yellow Civilian Warthog can be spotted on the Halo 2 multiplayer maps Headlong, Turf, and District, and the campaign level Metropolis.
- The Warthog and Hog's relation is a parallel to the present days' Humvee and Hummer, and the past's military and civilian Jeeps.
- The Civilian Warthog was featured in the December 2551 Edition of Car & Pilot Magazine.
- The Spade of Halo: Reach may be a variant of the Civilian Warthog.
