What is an "aerosledge"?
An aerosledge is a type of sled or vehicle designed to travel on snow or ice using air power. It is often equipped with a powerful engine that helps it glide smoothly over frozen surfaces. Aerosledges are typically used for both recreational purposes and by professionals in areas like research, exploration, or rescue missions. They are popular for their ability to travel quickly and efficiently across snow-covered terrain, offering a unique alternative to traditional snowmobiles or sleds.
Examples

The military deployed aerosledges for rapid transport across Arctic regions during winter operations.
