New Navy Seal Transport Vehicle?

Huge and Navy Seal don't go together.\n\nI'm guessing it will be something like this:\nhttp://www.army-technology.com/projects/shadow/\n\nIt has a hybrid electric motor to reduce sound (the only thing you hear is the wheels crunching over the terrain) and it's heat signiture.  It can go 38 km at 50 kph on it's batteries alone. It can go 758 km at 50 kph with fuel.\n\nThis might be a standard military vehical.\nhttp://www.army-technology.com/projects/gvp/

First of all, it's adorable that your son wants to "See army trucks"  He sounds like a cool kid and a badass.\n\nSecond, the link in the post above me is a good source of Military bases and their locations; but it isnt all you need to know.  The kind of trucks your son is talking about are called M-35s, M-900s, M-1078/83's and Humvees and they are NOT at every military base.  I would hate for you guys to travel all the way to a base to find that they dont have prime movers.  So make sure you call ahead and ask for those trucks.\n\nAs far as talking to a General, that's pretty unlikely.  Generals are very rare and very busy.  I couldnt talk to a General if I wanted to.\nBut if you need help with the truck issue I'd be happy to help any way that I can.

There are two under construction, the first being the last of the Nimitz-class carriers, the George H. W. Bush (CVN-77). She is scheduled to be christened in March, 2006, delivered in March 2008, and commissioned in 2009. The Nimitz-class carrier program has been eliminated, to be replaced by the CVN-21 program, a highly advanced supercarrier. The first, designated CVN-78 and as yet unnamed. A ceremonial steel cut was made at the new plant to build all of the CVN-21 class carriers. Construction is expected to begin in 2007, though it depends on funding from Congress. It would then be commissioned in 2015. Possible names are USS-America, USS-Lexington, and USS-Enterprise. The last option seems likely since the current Enterprise is set to decommission the same time as the CVN-78's commissioning.

Hi Mash,\n\nIf you need that kind of informations i love to give you information about A.T.M..\n\nM-29c Cargo carrier made by Studebaker. \n\nThe "WEASEL" is a unique vehicle. It was used by the US Army the US Air Force, the British Army, The Turkish Army and by the Soviet Army under the Lend Lease Program. \n\nIn WOII they were a very useful means of transport in the Pacific area on the many islands with their difficult terrain.\nBut they were also used in arctic areas.\nThe engine is a Studebaker Champion 6-170, that is a 6-cilinder, gasoline, 65 bhp/3600 rpm\nIt has Warner gearbox, 3 gears forward and 1 for reverse those are doubled by a Sprocket with 2 speeds.\nIt also has a capstan winch on the bow.\nIn water it can do 4 m/h on land 30 m/h.\nNet weight is:\nWithout floating units 3.725 lb with floating units 4.780 lb

I'm on a destroyer and we have had our CIWS train on seagulls before.  Ha!  Yours is probably a Block 1B or greater, and has probably had some software upgrades that will enable it to track objects that small.  When you consider that it's designed to counter antiship cruise missiles (the nose-on aspect of which is only slightly larger than a mortar round) you shouldn't have much to worry about as far as the radar.  From my experience though, it's a really buggy system especially if you have the pneumatic drive vice the hydraulic system.  You get 4500 rounds a minute, but the tradeoff is less reliability.  What's more important?  Keep your head down out there, dude.

Sure they do.  They have tanks that even have 5-speed transmissions.  4 for Reverse and 1 for forward in case they are attacked from behind!

The US Armed Services are pursuing new tactical concepts...among them are Targeting Vehicle, Tactical Mobile Robots, Solar Blind Detectors, Metal Storm, Combat Hybrid Power Systems, and the pre-cursor efforts of the Future Ground Combat System...all coordinated with the Army, Navy and Marine Corps, and with DARPA's Small Unit Operations project.  The civilian flights of technicians and engineers continue to and from the Directorate for Development Plans Area (Groom Lake Air Base), so we know something is afoot.

The technology is 25 plus years old.  Look forward to the new Aurora.  It will take the place of the Shuttle.

I saw the report. Something is fishy. First off why would our military ever let that info out if it were true? Secondly, a diesel sub, and we can't detect it with a carrier group until it surfaces close to that group implying we will get shot out of the water if we try to do anything.  Bullcrap. It sounds like a political ploy in the making. Here's my guess. China has intentions of invading Taiwan, and we are not going to do a darn thing because we owe China too much money. I hope some Navy people post on this question. I want to hear their opinions.

This is an estimate, but the last actions of these types were probably used in the Korean conflict, at least to public knowledge.  Bluntly, airborne is how alot of special ops missions are sent out (hence the HALO 'High Altitude Low Opening' jump that the seals and other spec ops do.)

What you are looking for is a DRMO... Basically it is a lot with numbers chalked on the windshields and you put in a sealed bid for these items... There are a few vehicles you will not find at a DRMO auction. Often times you can call holding yards (Federal Foerstry, Military bases, Fleet mngmnt, Reserve or Guard centers, etc). In different areas the DRMO's are under different agencies. In our state the US Forestry holds the DRMO auctions rather than the military bases.\n\nI would call around to a few of the federal agencies that are local to you and ask them to put you in touch with the nearest DRMO. If you have a military base near you, call them and have them point you in the right direction. You might also get help finding a source from a forum member at steelsoldiers (listed in my sources). Often the DRMO auctions aren't listed publicy - you either have to stumble on them or someone that has info.

Still looking though. Is that ship still being used?

There's a knife the navy SEALS use.  It's fantastic. \n\nAny of the SOG knives are great.  I have the revolving blade saw/knife, and it's never let me down.  Had it for 4 years already and use it every year hiking and camping.  Hasn't even needed to be resharpened yet.\n\ncheck the website below.
