Military vehicles are usually big and loud, but as the British army is converting some of its vehicles from conventional diesel to petrol- electric hybrids, the noise problem may be over.

However, this technological transformation still has some problems to solve.  Electric vehicles are heavier and their electronics more vulnerable to emPS. Battery life and recycling of waste batteries need to be integrated into the total cost.

For an experimental technique, the advantages and disadvantages is very normal matter, but this does not affect the British military to military green full of enthusiasm, they breath converted for three different types of vehicles, "JACKAL" military vehicle is a lucky experiment model.

It was a big job to modify these large, varied structures, but it turned out to be a success. 

The battery, generator and other components used in the retrofit were readily available, and redundant parts such as the gearbox and transmission system were removed to reduce weight, which improved reliability while saving costs.

Let's have a look at how British " Jackal" change to Electric Vehicle.

Which parts are used in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Technology? 

1, In Intergrated Battery management System: Bussmann  EVH fuses (70 Vdc, 60-500 A),  Pyro-fuse EBPS100F40A (1000VDC, 400A),  EVK60-600 etc;

2, In Power Sting Motor: Bussmann  Pyro fuse EBPS65F40;

3, DC-AC converter and inverters: Bussmann EV fuse FWH , FWP-600, etc; 

4, In Motor/ Generator controller unit: Bussmann  Pyro-fuse EBPS100F40A  etc.
