Abstract
A military vehicle includes a frame, axle assemblies coupled with the frame that are configured to be driven to transport the military vehicle, an internal combustion engine configured to drive the axle assemblies, an electric motor configured to drive the axle assemblies, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to operate the military vehicle according to different modes by generating control signals for the internal combustion engine and the electric motor and providing the control signals to the internal combustion engine and the electric motor. The modes include an economy mode, a summon mode, an environmentally reactive control mode, a weaponry status control mode, a boost mode, an escape mode, an optimized idle control mode, a transmission control mode, a supplemental electric vehicle mode, and a convoy mode.
