Performance improvements with over 50% acceleration increase in HMMWV, indicating enhanced mobility and extended mission capabilities.
Michigan Technological University (MTU) responded to and was awarded Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) Number: W56JSR-18-S-0001 through the Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO). The delivered performance enhanced HMMWV offers increased mobility with over 50% increase in acceleration, improving maneuverability and significant operational range with extended mission duration. Additionally, with on-board energy storage, the vehicle provides extended silent watch and silent mobility capabilities enabling low acoustic and thermal signatures, along with on-board and export vehicle power enabling the powering of mission systems. This paper details the characteristics and performance of an HMMWV with a hybridized powertrain that was designed to meet and demonstrate these benefits.
