BABCOCK International has been awarded a one-year contract by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) to help the British Army understand the defence application and constraints of electric vehicles.
Babcock to help Army test electric military vehicles

Partnering with electric vehicles (EV) experts Electrogenic, Babcock will convert four in-service military Land Rovers, two protected vehicles and two general service, from diesel fuelled to EV using a drop-in kit and modified battery system.

The vehicles will then be tested by the Armoured Trials and Development Unit (ATDU) in a series of experimental battlefield military scenarios, to assess performance over steep terrain, wading and towing, and varied climate-related conditions.
