Non-Pneumatic Tires
While civilians might be about to enjoy airless tires, this is a technology that military vehicles have been enjoying for a long time now. There is no need to replace such tires, at least not for a long time, as they can endure all manner of punishment and will not flatten as ordinary tires do. This means that the U.S. Army’s tire budget can be saved incredibly. Such tires will allow military vehicles to navigate rugged or debris-filled environments far easier, without the worry of punctured tires.

Oshkosh M-ATV
The tiny but powerful Oshkosh M-ATV has had enough time in the field now to justify taking the HUMVEE’s place on the battlefield. It has a much higher acceleration and maneuverability than its ancestors, not to mention a superb set of armor that can withstand rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) extremely well. When it comes to spontaneous bombs, the Warlock electronic IED jammers will disable many varieties of home-made explosives before they even get near to the M-ATV, not to mention the CROW remote weapon station.
