by Mike Brown; Brent Marquardt; Adam McLeod; Harold Moore; Greg Szkilnyk

Abstract

Ker-Train Research Inc. has designed, manufactured and tested the Innovative Combat Transmission (ICT), a 1000hp, 32-speed Binary Logic Transmission for tracked vehicles. The ICT was originally intended to replace the HMPT in the Bradley Fighting Vehicle (BFV) but, with the latest upgrades and improvements, also finds itself a suitable candidate for higher powered tracked vehicle applications such as the Advanced Power Demonstrator (APD) and other future vehicle programs.
