It is a turbo diesel, pretty much the same engine as the new HUMVEE diesel. My understanding it is an all mechanical engine (uses the older style mechanical injection system instead of the newer electronic controlled system).
Also, all hydro/mechanical style transmission (again, no electronics). All done to make it EMF proof. Can run on jet fuel as well as diesel.
With that engine, it is likely geared to be able to push through nearly any obstacle, I doubt it can top 60 MPH.
Supposed to read “ EMP proof”.
Thanks! FR is cool, that’s neat about the EMF. Didn’t even think about it being a deisel, ignites with compression, no spark, right? If there was an EMF incident, could you start it somehow? Do batteries get fried, or just electronics? Sorry for the questions, just that you seem to know a lot more than me about it!
