Today's task of providing effective, state of the art tactical vehicles to all branches of our fighting forces is coupled with acute cost-awareness. Military decision-makers, as well as their civilian suppliers, are emphasizing the procurement of standard commercial vehicles, or vehicles that do not require great R and D outlays. The term used to describe these acquisitions is NDI - Non-Developmental Items. This paper reviews current heavy duty transmission configurations, and shows modifications that may be necessary to meet military requirements.
