Introducing the MARS (Mobile Adjustable Ramp System) - the world-class elevated tactical entry and rescue system that sets the industry standard. Built to provide an unparalleled advantage to police, military, and anti-terror forces, the MARS features dual, side-by-side hydraulic ramps that allow for simultaneous elevated access at varying heights.
The MARS has been extensively tested and proven in numerous real-world police and military missions, including emergency evacuations, dynamic entries, and tubular assaults. Its remarkable design and advanced engineering offer an unmatched level of performance, making it an essential tool for tactical operations.
OUTFIT YOUR CURRENT VEHICLE
Adaptable to both non-armored and partially armored commercial vehicles, as well as most OEM armored personnel carriers (APCs), the MARS can be customized to fit any vehicle configuration. Additionally, depending on the vehicle and setup, the MARS can often be easily removed when not in use, making it a highly versatile and practical solution for tactical teams on the go.
REACH MAX HEIGHT IN SECONDS
With its lightning-fast deployment, each ramp can be fully extended to its maximum height in just 10 seconds. This feature enables quick, efficient, and safe entry into elevated structures or vehicles, allowing tactical teams to stay ahead of the game.
Trust the MARS for unparalleled performance and maximum protection during high-stakes tactical operations.

Dual Extendable Hydraulic Ramps
​
The MARS features dual independently operated ramps that permit simultaneous, multi-story entry. Each ramp features an internally stowed extension allowing for maximum reach and vehicle front-end clearance. The MARS is capable of reaching max height with full extension in less than 10 seconds.
Rear Access Ladders
​
Two (2) ladders come standard with each ramp system. They are mounted to the rear of the MARS via stainless steel pins, allowing access to the ramp deck surface from the ground. When detached, gas springs lift the ladder out of the way to allow a larger area of clearance to the rear of the vehicle.
Heavy Duty Construction
​
The MARS is built primarily from aircraft grade aluminum, high strength steel and stainless steel fasteners. All aluminum components are anodized and all mild steel components are powder coated for superior corrosion and weathering resistance. The MARS ramp surface is constructed from slip resistant GripStrut Safety Grating that exceeds US Federal Spec RRG-1602A requirements.
Safety Railing System
​
The Safety Railing System is a standard feature on all available ETS ramps. The railing is designed to reduce user risk during operations. All safety railings are stainless steel with a sand blasted textured finish for enhanced grip qualities. The railings fold down or can be quickly removed to reduce overall system height for transport and low clearance needs.
System Removal Jacks
​
Each MARS system includes four (4) removal jacks that allow easy removal of the ramp system from the host vehicle. The RDD option provides an area under the bed for on board storage for the jacks.
Multi-Angle Extension Ramp (MER)
​
The MER provides and additional 48" of linear deck surface to the end of each extension ramp. This offers the MARS ramps an 80" breaching capability. In addition, the MER can be pivoted to provide a semi-level surface throughout the entire motion of the MARS ramps. The MER is optional on the MARS only.

RDD FEATURES:
Saddle Box
​
The Saddle Box is a large equipment storage enclosure that can house various MARS components such as the Side Assault System (SAS) and the Fast Assault Suspension Tower (FAST). The Saddle Box is customizable upon request.
Rear Articulating Stairway (RAS)
​
The RAS transforms the rear staging area into a high-speed access route for evacuation and assault purposes to and from the main ramp surface.
Rear Tactical Step
​
This two-tier staircase allows for easier access into the Crew Seating Area, Rear Articulating Stairway (RAS) and Rear Access Ladders. Each step is constructed using Grip Strut Safety Grating for sure footing.
Crew Area Seating and Storage
​
Two (2) benches increase seating capacity for up to eight (8) additional persons to ride beneath the rear deck. Underneath these benches are four (4) lockable enclosures for extra storage of gear and equipment.
