Modern drive systems for 21st century AFVs (II)

Article Abstract:

The evolution process of the power trains for both tracked and wheeled AFVs as well as tactical transport vehicles can be described as the progressive refinement of construction concepts. A hybrid-electric drive system offers several advantages over conventional schemes, and appears to be the most promising solution for both wheeled and tracked AFVs.
