The EBG combat engineering vehicle, based on the AMX 30 tank, is used by the engineers of the French Army. BAT-M engineering vehicle of Russia and the former Soviet Union. A military engineering vehicle is a vehicle built for construction work or for the transportation of combat engineers on the battlefield.
The M728 vehicle is used for breaching, obstacle removal, and pioneering operations. Although the M728 consists of a tank hull and a short-barreled turret, it is not a tank and should not be routinely used against enemy tanks. It is an excellent heavy assault support vehicle when used as part of a combined engineer-infantry team.
Cylindrical tanks require full-length vanes since a portion of the propellant could adhere to the forward tank head. Spherical tanks need full-length vanes in a case by case basis. If the acceleration is lateral, partial-length vanes can work. [5]: 5 A center post can be added to the tank in addition to the side vanes.
A hydraulic power pack or hydraulic power unit is a unit attached to the ANF's agitator system, discharge valve and bottom removal (for cleaning). It consists of an oil tank on which a pump is provided for circulating high-pressure oil through a control valve system and to hydraulic cylinders. These cylinders are provided for vertical movement ...
The United States Army DEVCOM Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC) (formerly United States Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) [1]), located in Warren, Michigan, is the United States Armed Forces' research and development facility for advanced technology in ground systems.

A Horton sphere (sometimes spelled Hortonsphere), also referred to as a spherical tank or simply sphere, is a spherical pressure vessel, which is used for industrial-scale storage of liquefied gases. Example of materials that can be stored in Horton spheres are liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), and anhydrous ammonia .
With tanks unable to leave the beaches, the raid stalled and failed. Following failure of the raid, a Royal Canadian Engineer officer, Lt J.J. Denovan who was attached to the Department of Tank Design, proposed a vehicle to protect engineers during assault operations. Development commenced based on the experiences at Dieppe.
