Advantages
Using Composite Rubber Track systems offer a lot of direct benefits as well as impressive operational advantages
Direct Benefits
UP TO 50% WEIGHT REDUCTION
allowing for additional equipment to be integrated such as APS (Active Protection Systems) or Weapons systems

UP TO 70% REDUCTION IN VIBRATION
reducing vibrational damage to critical sensors and Ordinance, Munitions & Explosives (OME). Crew Whole Body Vibration (WBV) also reduced, increasing combat effectiveness

UP TO 13db(A) REDUCTION
IN NOISE OUTPUT,
Signature management is strategically important on the battlefield. Reductions in noise reduces the acoustic footprint of the platform, but also aides in crew communication.

OPERATIONAL ADVANTAGES
ENABLES HIGHER VEHICLE SPEEDS
CRT is more efficient – it requires less Tractive Effort to maintain movement (Draw-Bar–Pull). This benefits the platform from not only fuel savings but enables higher speed.
ENHANCED DURABILITY
Less maintenance required allowing the vehicle to be operational longer
Less maintenance required allowing the vehicle to be operational longer
BETTER MANOEUVRABILITY
CRT provides vehicles with a greater breadth of terrain to operate on due to the lower ground pressure and wider track

CREW COMBAT EFFECTIVENESS
Due to the decrease in Noise and Vibrations, crews are more combat effective when reaching their objectives

BLAST RESISTANT
CRT is blast resistant up to STANAG Level 3. It does not suffer secondary blast effect (fragmentation from damaged steel tracks).

FIRE RESISTANT
CRT, during manufacture is compressed under extreme pressures removing all air making it almost resistant to fire
