The Rhino is a large mining SRV produced by Vodel.[1][2] The heavy-duty, three-person vehicle does planetary surface-mining with deployable mining rigs.[3] Early access for ARX began on 2 September 2026.[2]
Overview
This heavy-duty SRV has a Planetary Mineral Scanner to find resources. It can deploy up to 6 autonomous mining rigs to extract resources. It can hold up to 24 tons of cargo which can be transferred to the parent ship. It can transport up to three commanders. The built in wheel thrusters enable it to jump over obstacles.
