The hull plates, produced at Constellium&rsquo;s plant in Ravenswood, West Virginia, were live-fire tested with excellent results, which were utilized by U.S. Army experts to generate requirements for future Army combat vehicles. This technique offers the Army redesign flexibility not available with alternative solutions.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span>The hull passed all objective threats and demonstrated capability, allowing for the U.S. military to increase the hull requirements for all tracked vehicles moving forward.
