AAR launches Mobility Systems Road Show
Cross-country tour showcases industry-leading products and capabilities
CADILLAC, MICHIGAN — AAR Mobility Systems has loaded up two 53-foot road show trucks with a cross-section of their products that are traveling to military bases across the country to demonstrate AAR’s broad range of mobility products and services. With one truck headed east and one headed west, customers can actually see, touch, and walk through the products displayed before they decide to purchase.
Since the early 1990’s, AAR has been taking their products on tour to give customers a first-hand experience of features and functionality, and access to field experts regarding product implementation and benefits.
“Our Road Show Trucks have made a significant impact on the decision-making process of our customers”, states Art Breithaupt, VP Sales and Marketing for AAR Mobility Systems. “It’s okay to send out a product catalog, but when customers can see and walk through our products, it makes it much easier for them to envision their equipment inside”.
This year’s West Coast product line-up includes the ISU® 90KCI Dog Kennel, the ISU® 90I High Security Container, the Expandable Small Air Mobile Shelter (ESAMS), and the Hardside Expandable Small Air Mobile Shelter (HESAMS). The East Coast product line-up includes the ISU® 96RC Refrigerated Container, the Expandable Light Air Mobile Shelter Tactical Operations Center (ELAMS TOC), and the Hardside Expandable Light Air Mobile Shelter (HELAMS). AAR products are used to support the U.S. Department of Defense and its allies, as well as humanitarian aid and disaster relief operations.
AAR Mobility Systems, a division of AAR, is a world-leader in the design, manufacture, and integration of lightweight, rapidly deployable mobility systems such as ISU® Containers, Tactical Air Mobile Shelters, and Palletized Systems.
