DESIGN AND FABRICATION MOBILITY EXERCISE 'A' TEST RIGS

Abstract

The purpose of this project was the design and construction of three mobility test rigs as postulated by the Vicksburg Mobility Exercise 'A' document, dated February 1965. The construction of these test rigs was undertaken to generate the hardware necessary to prove the theory, advanced in the Exercise 'A' document, that vehicles can be built to operate in a specified environment using existing techniques in mobility science. Covered in this report is an account of the design, construction, and initial testing of the three machines.
