 The Columbia Shuttle disaster required both manpower and technology to find and recover the debris scattered across the southern United States. Raytheon, the global defense electronics giant, assisted in the recovery with a brand new, hi-tech SUV - "The First Responder".
Because of the scarce communication during the 9/11 disaster, the vehicle was developed to allow multiple emergency crews to communicate instantly with one another. Public safety agencies can stay connected and respond faster in emergencies. This $300,000 SUV is equipped with a satellite transmitter/recevier and keeps the lines of communication open anywhere, anytime.
