That new trailer is explained...not just a trailer, not just a battery pack but so much more...

The apparent trailer on this is not a trailer. It’s electrically powered and automatically steered and turns any 4x4 into a hybrid 6x6 with massive exportable power and payload https://t.co/nvo6uIgg8h

I find this very interesting.

So with the additional powerbank and storage space of the trailer we also gain increased mobility by making a 4x4 into basically a 6x6?

I like it. 

Considering all the electronics hitting the battlefield and the need to power them this seems like a no brainer.

Of course the ideal solution would be to make a bunch of apps for phones so that every soldier could have a highly portable communications/call for fire solution in their pocket but since that's unlikely (along with the fact that everyone will be tracking phones) then supply dedicated systems with juice has to be done.

The new Marine Corps should be buying this for every JLTV fielded.
