The Army is working on electrification technologies for its platforms, and the service plans to build an electric light vehicle demonstrator that will be ready for testing as early as 2025, an official said March 16.
“That is in the realm of the possible,” said Alfred Grein, acting director for Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Ground Vehicle Systems Center. “I m not saying [it s] a system that would be fielded, but certainly a system that we could put in the hands of soldiers and have them operate and get their feedback so we can help shape the requirements, and then drive towards a solution set for our tactical systems.”
