Sweden has built the world's first stealth ground combat vehicle. Based on the chassis of a CV9040 infantry fighting vehicle, the SAT/Mark (Signature Management Technologies / Ground) has an unusual shape which covers the running wheels and almost completely covers the tracks. The hull is designed to provide the lowest signature in any wavelength. The vehicle has a reduced noise drive train, and has systems to reduce the heat of its exhaust.--Stephen V Cole
