Armored Modular and Non-Modular Vehicle: a Survey M International Journal of Engineering and Advanced Technology (IJEAT) ISSN: 2249 – 8958, Volume-8 Issue-3, February 2019 Armored Modular and Non-Modular Vehicle: A Survey M. Sheik Dawood, A. Fardhan Ahmed, M. Jehosheba Margaret, C. Yesubai Rubavathi Abstract: Armored vehicles are being used in the defense sector for many years. The a rmored vehicles have been so efficient and productive and have The most stunning thing in the universe is interstellar, survived these many years. In the year 1995, a new concept was humans are working on it for many years and there have introduced called modular vehicles, which means we can use one been made a lot of discoveries. vehicle for almost all purposes. In the defense sector, the number of modular vehicles is less compared to the non-modular All the space probes and satellites are modular in nature. So vehicles. If we choose the future with modular vehicles it is going to be the wisest decision which we take. The modular vehicles are we are getting into the world of modules because we find it better in every way when compared with non-modular vehicles. more efficient than anything. Calculating the time it will In this paper, we present a detailed survey on both the modular take for us to achieve a 100% modular environment will be and non-modular vehicles used in the defense sector and we in 5 to 6 years. We find this is the appropriate time to get suggest a more advanced modular vehicle which can serve the involved in the modular ecosystem and look forward to the defense sector for years without a need of replacement. betterment of the human future. This survey is mainly taken Keywords: Armored Modular Vehicle (AMV), Central Tire to review the armored modular and non-modular vehicles Inflation System (CTIS), All-Welded Steel, Armored Personnel that are available in the defense sector. An updated version Carrier (APC), Light Armored Vehicle (LAV), Non-Modular. from the below mentioned armored modular and non- modular vehicle can be designed. The features that the I. INTRODUCTION vehicle should have to fulfill the requirements of a modular The modular concept is an emerging technology which is vehicle should be as follows, the vehicle can have a tank going to be used in many fields like in electronic devices, design, the reason for choosing the tank design is because vehicles, space probes, consumer products etc. The meaning the tanks are basically meant to be strong, protective and of modular is defined as “employing or involving a module withstand anything that comes in their way, It can also have or modules as the basis of design or construction”. When we a technological feature built in it which is an Auto Pilot apply the concept of modules to vehicles we can have a System so that it can go to places without an extra need of simple and elegant picture which shows a common base soldiers and can perform a reconnaissance activity by itself structure and we can add any kind of modules we want without risking lives. It has got a lot of advantages having based on our requirement. If we have modular products the the autopilot system installed in it. The vehicle must have first thing that is going to be reduced is the time and parts the most important feature that an armored vehicle should that are used to manufacture non-modular products. The have and that is the All-Terrain Response, which allows the time it takes to manufacture a vehicle can be reduced vehicle to go anywhere at any time. In the following drastically because you are going to build a common base sections, we will be discussing different Modular and Non- structure for all of your vehicles. On the other hand the Modular Vehicles being used and the upcoming vehicles in parts, the modules we use also have common base structures the Defense sector. The vehicles we are going to discuss are in them and you do not need to manufacture new parts and as follows: Non-Modular Vehicles: TATA Kestrel, Stryker, assembly lines which is going to cost a lot. This is how BTR-90 & LAV-III Modular Vehicles: Patria AMV, Boxer efficient a modular vehicle can be, this is just the beginning & Havoc AMV of the world of modules there is a lot more we can do with II. TATA KESTREL it.Now let’s look into the developments being made in the world of modular products. Engineers and scientists are The TATA Kestrel is an 8X8 Armored fighting vehicle. working to design and convert everything into a modular This vehicle has been built for the survival of the troops, to give protection from arm fires and hidden explosives. It is product. Google, one of the biggest tech tycoon introduced an 8X8 all-wheel drive vehicle. This vehicle has installed a modular electronic devices like a modular mobile phone. hydropneumatic suspension which helps to get a comfortable ride.

Because there are no Married Quarters available, a percentage of Social and Affordable Housing should be made available each year to the Defence Force. The Defence Force should allocate these houses to serving members. An allocated house should be within a County or a set distance from the location of the serving members barracks and with criteria attached to members enlistment or extension of service contract. 2. Serving members family, Wife / Partner and children, should have free access to basic GP type services with a military medical doctor.
