Back in the early 50's this dude invented the Rhino for patrolling northern Canada and Alaska. Don't want them commies coming over the pole, ya know.
But the military didn't buy it, saying a couple of slugs in the front wheels would cause them to fill with water and sink.
I guess foam technology wasn't up to speed yet.
I'd imagine they would be spendy to buy and maintain, when a handful of nukes should keep the commies at bay.

I'll bet Cubby Broccoli would be in for a couple.
