Horstman Ride Height Control System – RHCS™
The RHCS™ delivers vehicle strategic mobility for airlift, rail transportation and sea lift
The Horstman Ride Height Control System (RHCS™) provides a fully selectable ground clearance adjustment that also maintains the correct weight distribution on multiple axles.
A CANBUS compliant Driver Interface Unit allows for terrain and ride height selections.
The RHCS™ delivers vehicle strategic mobility for airlift, rail transportation and sealift. Tactical mobility, platform stability, and suspension life expectancy are improved.
Integrated, tested and produced on multiple 6×6 and 8×8 platforms the RHCS has delivered high mobility into amphibious, desert, mountain and tropical terrain.
