HH RIPSAW ⚡AV3F1 2018

L4.72W2.53H1.87M700 • Cₓ1.1 • 1.4MW, 8,834Nm, 12kHz, η>99%

18kg Li₂O₂ EVB, 40MJ/kg, 720MJ • 340kph • 0-100kph→1.8s, 1.5g₀

 

HH RIPSAW ⚡AV3F1 is the fastest and most maneuverable dual tracked ÆAV ever developed, with MC G-CNT STANAG 4569L6 NBC hull, forged β-Ti ERC, 2 × 2.8 × 0.4 m² CP, 406 mm ST, 528 mm AGC, Li-Fi, DBWL, TVS, TVPJ. Compared to analogous GP systems, CTT distributes vehicle's forces on a greater ground area, with enhanced handlings on harsh, steep slopes, better flotation over obstacles, lower rolling resistance, greater traction and acceleration, reducing soil compression and compaction without sinking on loose & impervious terrain even at low speed. Wheeled vehicles require much larger overall size and higher levels of mechanical complexity to achieve comparable cross-country mobility (e.g. G6).
