Off-road vehicles, to negotiate snowcovered terrain reliably and economically, must comply with a narrow range of design parameters. The practical lessons of past experience are evaluated, indicating the superiority of the four-tracked vehicle configuration. The design details essential to achieve snowmobility are indicated.Engineering information and the current state-of-the-art indicate that a functional, low-cost ordnance vehicle can be designed for use during all seasons in the Arctic.
