Abstract

See full text

An armor-protected buoyancy module is installed in multiple unit sets on tracked or wheeled vehicles to provide the vehicles with amphibious capability. The buoyancy modules can be lifted by two men without additional material handling equipment. The buoyancy modules are attached to fixed mounting devices that are mounted on the subject vehicle. Existing armor elements may be present to serve as the mounting devices. The armor shell provided for the buoyancy module protects it in both the deployed and stowed configurations.
