Advanced Combat Engine Poster

Abstract

The Advanced Combat Engine is a highly efficient, power dense engine that enables the expansion of military ground vehicle capabilities beyond current or past potential with the next-generation of propulsion power up to 1500 hp. The ACE architecture offers a modular, scalable design to optimally match the power requirements of combat and tactical vehicles. The improved efficiency and lower heat rejection of the ACE provides more power in a compact design allowing for additional on-board vehicle electrical power capabilities.
