US Army’s next-gen tactical vehicle combines diesel engine with high-tech battery
 
The U.S. Army has recently tested its Next-Generation Tactical Vehicle — Hybrid (NGTV-H) prototype in the snowy Bavarian landscape of Germany.

The testing occurred during the annual Combined Resolve 25-1 exercise, where the Army’s 3rd Brigade, 10th Mountain Division, maneuvered the vehicle across various operational scenarios, demonstrating its adaptability and effectiveness in challenging terrains.
 
The trial emphasized the NGTV-H’s capabilities in advanced reconnaissance missions, which are crucial for troops to collect and transmit vital battlefield intelligence, especially in adverse conditions.

This demonstration aligns with the Army’s commitment to modernizing its operational efficiency to meet the ever-evolving demands of contemporary warfare.

The Army has to kill this project right now!  It isn't fuel efficient or clean enough,

If it has a lithium battery, is it nicknamed "Ronson"?

Lithium batteries don't "like" shock and vibration and, IMO, are badly suited for all-terrain use.
