The prime purpose of this paper is to describe the advances in Zener diode transient suppressors for ground vehicle and aircraft application. The evolution of the transient suppressor development for the U.S. Army is presented with emphasis on space, weight, and cost considerations. Improvements including an electronic thermal switch and a "battle override" switch are also described. A futuristic transient suppressor of modular design developed for use as an integral part of the equipment being protected is functionally described.
