The Topsky Tianlong Smooth Road 100 is a heavy-duty tracked unmanned ground vehicle engineered specifically for firebreak construction and wildfire fuel management. Weighing 1,400 kg and delivering a traction force of 3.0 kN alongside a maximum cutting force of 15 kN, the platform is built to push through dense brush and crush trees up to 100 mm in diameter—the kind of continuous mechanical work required to establish and maintain isolation belts that slow or stop fire spread. Its tracked chassis distributes weight across a wide footprint for traction on soft ground, ash, and uneven forest terrain where wheeled machinery would struggle.

Designed for remote operation with a control distance of up to 1,500 m, the Smooth Road 100 keeps operators away from active fire edges, smoke, and falling debris during both planned fuel-reduction programs and live incident response. A published endurance of 7 hours supports extended clearing windows, and a maximum steering angle of 55° provides the maneuverability needed to work in confined or irregular forest settings. With a top speed of 0.4 m/s, the system prioritizes controlled, high-torque clearing performance over rapid repositioning—consistent with the demands of sustained outdoor mechanical operations.
