Abstract
This report summarizes the work done during the period 7 June 1963 to 6 April 1964. Phase IIA consisted of engineering and design of an auxiliary propulsion kit to provide the 105 MM Howitzer XM 102 with its own mobile power and to improve its present mobility. The objective was to prepare assembly and detail drawings with supporting calculations and performance predictions. Phase IIB consisted of testing several hydraulic motor and pump components submitted by vendors. The objective was to determine which motor and pump combination would achieve the lowest weight and highest efficiency. (Author)
