The SUV comes with a drone that can magnetically attach to the roof even while the car is moving.

Land Rover says the drone can be used to transmit live footage to emergency response teams in disaster situations like earthquakes, landslides, and avalanches. It can also be used to rescue survivors or missing people.

The trunk comes with charging ports in case you're out in the field for a significant amount of time. There are multiple plug options to accommodate different regions.

Project Hero is based on a Discovery with a 3.0-liter TD6 engine. Starting in June, it will be based at the Austrian Red Cross training center in Erzberg, a mountainous mining area. The drone will be used in simulations.
