A highly customized stretched Chevy Suburban mobile command vehicle was recently delivered to U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM). The modified sport utility vehicle features a robust and secure communications suite. It looks set to join a U.S. military task force that is primarily on call to help respond to domestic nuclear, chemical, and biological attacks and other incidents.


Accelerated Media Technologies (AMT) issued a statement earlier this month about the delivery and provided additional details about the "mobile command center" vehicle for U.S. Northern Command. The Auburn, Massachusetts-based company offers a variety of customized SUVs and trucks intended for military forces and law enforcement agencies, as well as mobile television broadcast vehicles.
 
"The physical shell of the vehicle was built by AMT’s master craftsman and stretched 20” to make the custom workspace" and it has been "relined using an entirely new interior, carpets, leather interior, [and] custom work-space," the company's statement added. AMT does not mention any armoring or other additional protective features being added to this particular SUV.

They should have made it look more like a hearse so it couldn't be so easily spotted!

Probably just me, but when they came out with the new Suburban design every time I see a black one the first thing that comes to mind is mortuary :shrug:
