Title ProperAmphibious vehicle powertrains
LanguageENG
AuthorDonaldson, Peter
Publication2013.
Summary / Abstract (Note)Truly amphibious vehicles are hybrids, and by nature complicated. Consequently, their designs always involve more than the usual amount of compromise compounded by more than the usual amount of risk to schedules, budgets and ultimate operational capability. And web-footed forces that must manoeuvre from the sea - the USMC being the supreme example - are exposed more than most.
