The US Army has been using three different automotive hydraulic brake fluids covered by Federal Specification VV-B-680, for use in all Tank-Automotive equipment (temperate -tropical areas), Military Specification MIL-H 13920 for arctic use, and Military Specification MIL-P-46046 for preservative use (2). These polyglycol and castor oil type fluids are hygroscopic and absorb water while in use which adversely affects their performance by lowering the vapor lock temperature, increasing the low temperature viscosity, and by contributing to component corrosion which can lead to cup scoring, as well as system failure.
