The Secret Service debuted a heavily fortified vehicle nicknamed “Golf Force One”

The US Secret Service has introduced a new armored escort vehicle – a modified Polaris Ranger dubbed by the press as “Golf Force One” – to shadow President Donald Trump during golf outings, with the vehicle first sighted at his Turnberry course in Scotland.

The all-black, military-style buggy trailed Trump while he played on the expansive golf links over the weekend. Although Trump himself rode in a standard golf cart, the armored Ranger followed closely behind.

The vehicle reportedly features armored panels, tinted bulletproof windows, and visibly reinforced rear sections – a level of protection unusual for golf outings. Security experts noted its light frame allows for high mobility across grassy terrain while offering ballistic defense in case of crisis.

According to The War Zone, the vehicle is based on the Polaris Ranger XP 1000, a widely used utility terrain vehicle (UTV) designed for off-road transportation by law enforcement and military agencies. A Polaris spokesperson confirmed to the outlet that the vehicle was manufactured by the company but heavily modified by a third party.
