Military Ground Vehicles and Technology “Remember the Horse”

Military Ground Vehicles: The Start

• Ancient Sumerians appear to be the first society to use the horse in war

• Ridden without saddles, and with no selective breeding, the horses were probably 350kg

Military Ground Vehicles: The Start

• Horses got bigger and stronger (and heavier), riders and animal were armored, weight continued to drive upwards, logistics became important (often another horse was ridden to the battle, then a team armored the battle horse and knight…food, water, etc.). The original heavy cavalry was born!

Military Ground Vehicles: The Start GROUND VEHICLES

• Technology intervened: in the 1300’s masses of English Longbowmen defeated French Cavalry; Swiss pike formations were able to withstand cavalry charges, gunpowder weapons became prevalent…dominance of heavy cavalry waned

CLEARED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE TM1409-0107-5

Military Ground Vehicles: The Start • The horse-mounted soldier gradually disappeared from the battlefield

– But 6000 years was a good run

– The armored horse disappeared faster (2500 years)

– Horses got bigger-Armor heavier/better before disappearing

• The 20th century saw the rise of mechanized cavalry via the internal combustion engine, advances in metallurgy, polymers, communications weapons…in short: technology applications

Military Ground Vehicles: The Present

• The “Good”

– Lethal against other armored vehicles

– Pretty good mobility over most terrain

– As a node in the network, highly connected

– As we learn more about blast and ballistics, survivability increasing

• The “Bad”

– Strategic Mobility – vehicles are heavy and difficult to move in theater

– Tactical Mobility – decades of up-armoring has resulted in vehicles with restricted off road mobility

– Dependence on improved surfaces has increased vulnerability to IED attacks

• The “Ugly”

– Heavy vehicles with poor fuel consumption lead to long and vulnerable supply lines, leading to need for more vehicles for protection

– Future adversaries will likely continue to base in difficult terrain

– IEDs becoming more prevalent

Historically, increased survivability = decreased mobility

Military Ground Vehicles: The Future GROUND VEHICLES

• What technologies can we develop to change the trends of current combat vehicles, provide safer and more effective vehicles (and create new market share)? “Remember the horse!”
