Insights
Allison's multi-million NGET contract strengthens military market position and advances electric hybrid technology for combat vehicles.
Allison Transmission has secured a
The contract's strategic value lies in its focus on enhancing eMachine and Inverter systems to achieve flexible power modes, which will directly address two critical military requirements: noise reduction and improved capabilities for electrified vehicle fleets. This technology has immediate battlefield implications as reduced acoustic signatures enhance survivability by making vehicles harder to detect during operations.
What makes this particularly noteworthy is that Allison's eGen Force™ technology has already gained traction with American Rheinmetall for the XM30 program, indicating market validation for their approach. The scalability of their solution to accommodate vehicles up to 75 tons positions Allison to capture additional military contracts across multiple vehicle platforms, including future Main Battle Tank requirements.
The technical specifications are impressive: the high-efficiency range pack with eight forward/three reverse gears provides 12:1 ratio coverage while generating 220 kilowatts of electrical power. This hybrid architecture cleverly balances the range benefits of combustion engines with the stealth advantages of electric propulsion—allowing silent mobility when needed while maintaining extended operational range.
From a competitive standpoint, Allison's integration of torque blending technology and drive-by-wire systems demonstrates their lead in developing solutions that simultaneously address performance, efficiency, and reduced fuel consumption compared to legacy systems—three priorities that are increasingly critical for defense mobility applications.
NGET Program Phase 2 Will Focus on Enhancing Power Capabilities and Noise Reduction in Combat Vehicles
"We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the Ground Vehicle Systems Center and on this vital project. The advancements in the eMachine and Inverter system will build on the success of Phase 1, bringing us one step closer to delivering propulsion systems that not only meet but exceed the performance and efficiency needs of modern armored combat vehicles," said Dana Pittard, Vice President of Defense Programs at Allison Transmission "This funding will enable us to push the boundaries of technology and provide our warfighters with the silent, efficient and powerful systems they need to succeed in the field."
The NGET program is part of Allison's broader efforts to develop advanced propulsion solutions, such as the eGen Force™, which was selected by American Rheinmetall (AR) for the XM30 program. This advanced transmission is also scalable to 75-ton tracked vehicles, making it a strong candidate for other tracked vehicle programs and future Main Battle Tank requirements.
The eGen Force features a high-efficiency range pack that utilizes eight forward and three reverse gears to provide an efficient 12:1 ratio coverage and generate 220 kilowatts of electrical power. This electric hybrid system leverages the strengths of an internal combustion engine for extended range and high power demands while the electric motor enables silent mobility and significant reduction in thermal and acoustic signatures to enhance tactical operations with the intent to increase survivability. The eGen Force employs torque blending with engine power in high tractive effort scenarios and incorporates drive-by-wire technology, further boosting performance and efficiency while reducing fuel consumption compared to legacy systems.
