Ferret p1

In order to combat the G.I. Joe Team's motorcycles - the R.A.M. and later the Silver Mirage - Cobra created an armed A.T.V. The first prototype was 3-wheeled and armed with 4 heat seeking missiles.

Building off the first prototype, the second prototype had a sleeker design and smaller missiles but was still not as effective as desired. Both of these 3-wheelers tended to tip easily when cornering at high speeds.

Further development focused on a 4-wheeled vehicle, leading to the production of the Ferret A.T.V.

Notes

In his book 3.75 Joe Volume 4, Dan Klingensmith states that the original 3-wheel design had the name Cobra BAT (Ballistic Attack Trike) and that the 4-wheel deign was called the Cobra Python ATV. The initial design was by Wayne Luther.
