Rhino (Extreme 1)

Rhino was the army's entry in the two Forces events of Extreme Series 1. It was designed on a tank and ran on tracks to complete the look, and was armed with a shovel and a rotating turret. Since this was an entry by the Army, the machine itself was actually a bomb-defusing robot just designed to look like a tank. It was entered in both Forces tournaments, but lost in both of its matches. Like the Submarine Corps had put a sailor in the crow's nest of Sub-Version, the Army had put a soldier ontop of Rhino.

A largely unchanged Rhino also competed in Techno Games. It lost the Sumo Event after driving off the ring itself, despite dominating its opponent.

Extreme 1
Rhino fought in both Armed Forces tournaments of the first series of Extreme. Firstly it faced Mega-Hurts of the Navy and Anvil of the RAF, where Rhino immediatly drove into the pit release button. Anvil then pushed Rhino, but Rhino turned and easily pushed Anvil close to the pit. Anvil escaped and Rhino persued it, as Anvil was hit by Mega-Hurts, Rhino drove up on top of Anvil and then drove over it and Mega-Hurts. Anvil continued to attack Rhino, evntually dislodging one of Rhino's tracks. However Rhino was still able to run smoothly. Meanwhile Mega-Hurts seemed to have steering issues and got itself stuck on the edge of the pit. Rhino then pushed Mega-Hurts down, but was then pushed in by Anvil and Dead Metal, who then shoved Anvil into the pit aswell. The judges then decided that Anvil had won.

"At least we didn't lose to the Navy."

- The team's response to being asked how they felt about losing to the RAF.

Rhino was then entered into the Forces Special, an episode devoted to a tournament with entries from the Army, RAF, Navy, Police, Fire Service and Submarine Service. Rhino was pitted against Oblark from the Fire Service and old enemies Mega-Hurts from the Navy. It was in fact the old enemies that proved to be Rhino's downfall: Mega-Hurts was continually able to get between the tracks, and eventually Rhino's battery came loose, immobilising it.
