Article New Amphibious Marine Corps Vehicle Can Carry 3 Tanks Up To 200 Nautical Miles Image

The Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector (UHAC) is the latest innovation from the Marine Corps Warfighting Lab, in conjunction with the Office of Naval Research, which is essentially a monster amphibious assault vehicle.

The UHAC began testing in early July and can do a whole slew of things, including landing multiple tanks at once and bringing ashore equipment, vehicles and troops.

UHAC Features:

  • Carry payloads up to 190 tons
  • Speeds up to 20 knots
  • Climb sea walls up to 10 feet in height
  • Capable of carrying three battle tanks up to 200 nautical miles

Metal Hardness Chart: Rockwell vs Brinell vs Vickers Explained

Hardness measures how well a metal resists permanent deformation. That is, how it holds up when something harder presses into its surface. Every hardness testing method works the same way. You push an indenter into the material under a controlled load, then measure what it leaves behind. What separates Rockwell, Brinell, and Vickers is indenter shape, applied force, and how the result is read.
