The U.S. military unveiled this week a concept combat vehicle that combines new blast-deflection technology with the safety features of a
commercially available truck and NASCAR engineering.
Everything from the materials to seating configuration has been rethought.
Built on the skeleton of a Ford F-350 truck, the vehicle is called the ULTRA AP (Armored Patrol). Its builders melded some of the latest advancements
in vehicle defense with the maneuverability and safety features of an "off-the-shelf" truck to develop a concept vehicle that may one day replace
the familiar Humvee in the battlefield.
Looks ugly, more like a tractor than an armoured vehicle.
