Using only internal fuel, the vehicle has a 100km (60-mile) range and 72-hour endurance. The vehicle’s JP-8 / electric hybrid powertrain provides both a “silent drive” and “silent watch” capability.

HDT has been developing the Hunter WOLF since 2012. The company has participated in more than a dozen evaluations with the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and USSOCOM (Special Operations Command). The Army Test and Evaluation Command has awarded numerous Safety Releases forHDT’s candidate SMET systems.

The ruggedness and simplicity of Hunter WOLF make it very affordable. The system’s modular architecture and full compliance with the Army’s interoperability protocols makes the vehicle easy to upgrade, using a wide variety of missions kits, and keeps life cycle costs low.
