Code-named Vapor, this stealth-theme 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T was custom built by Galpin Auto Sports in partnership with the United States Air Force for the Super Car Tour, a U.S. Air Force recruiting initiative, launched in 2009. The car was built to showcase the technological advances employed by the U.S. Air Force, a mission it accomplishes with a variety of cool features and technological enhancements, including a Mini ITX CPU with a 120 GB solid state hard drive and an Intel 15 quad ewe processor. Wearing a custom wide body kit, swing-up doors, aero trim tabs and specially-fabricated 20-inch wheels, it is cloaked in radar-absorbing Stealth Black paint, and juries a roof-mounted 360-degree rotational thermal imaging camera that projects images on the windshield through joystick controls.
A 5.7-liter Hemi engine hidden away beneath the Shaker hood is capable of running almost noiselessly thanks to its ability to switch the exhaust to silent mode. The interior is pure fighter jet featuring simulated carbon fiber vinyl on the door panels and seats, and dual steering wheels and display monitors. Other great features include a simulated missile and NOS booster display, and manual override switches for every accessory modeled after the fail-safe systems used in today's advanced aircraft. Its unique computer system is also equipped with virtual instrument gauge cluster, automotive self- diagnostics software, and a relay board that allows the driver to command the Vapor by remote control from anywhere in the world.
