This vehicle is built for offroading, including crossing water without issues. Air tanks are handy for inflating tires after you deflate to cross particular terrain multiple times and inflate anything else you bring on your trips or whatever your imagination comes up with. Instant air verse waiting for a DC/AC pump to take 10-20mins to struggle to fill each tire. They have been extremely valuable when you are burning daylight.
Preventing water ingestion is only one use of a snorkel. In many cases people install them to reduce the amount of dust ingested into the engine. That may have been their goal, or perhaps they just like the look.
