2. Continuous track - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_track

   Continuous track or tracked treads are a system of vehicle propulsion used in tracked vehicles, running on a continuous band of treads or track plates driven by two or more wheels. The large surface area of the tracks distributes the weight of the vehicle better than steel or rubber tyres on an equivalent vehicle, enabling continuous tracked ...

3. Vickers VR180 Vigor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_VR180_Vigor

   This suspension required a flexible track, developed by Vickers, with rubber sealing washers between the moving parts. [1] Wear to the rubber in service could make the track floppy, a drawback to the design. Together with the sophisticated suspension articulation, if not well-maintained, the Vigor was prone to throwing tracks when run at speed.

   MacPherson strut suspension, track control arm coloured dark blue. In automotive suspension, a control arm, also known as an A-arm, is a hinged suspension link between the chassis and the suspension upright or hub that carries the wheel. In simple terms, it governs a wheel's vertical travel, allowing it to move up or down when driving over ...

7. Tank steering systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_steering_systems

   The system is fully regenerative: all of the engine's power reaches the track either through the main driveshaft or the steering system; none of the energy is being lost to brakes or clutches. Additionally, since power is fed around the transmission to the steering system, in some designs the tank can be turned or even pivoted in place even ...
