- President Joe Biden is contemplating sending Stryker Armored Vehicles to Ukraine ahead of a potential renewed push by Russian forces in the coming months, according to reports. General Dynamics has unveiled a new Stryker armored vehicle variant capable of firing laser weapons, launching attack drones, and conducting electronic warfare operations. Called the StrykerX, the new military vehicle features a hybrid-electric engine that provides soldiers with longer “silent watch” capability. It is also engineered to improve troops’ battlefield awareness and fire airburst rounds with long-range precision.

Also, STRYKER has been in service since 2002 which is about 20 years, not the 40 years stated in the video.
I came here to say the same thing. I remember in the early 2000s they did a road march test on my area, letting people know. Not to be alarmed when 100 of these at the time mostly unknown "tanks" roll past you.
Everyone I ever talked to about Strykers hated them. Hydraulic failures and maintenance issues always came up top on complaints. I can't see a more complicated version being liked anymore going forward lol.
According to the video it's been in service for over 40 years. You would think that they would have solved the hydraulic and maintenance issues by now. Maybe it's just too profitable to provide parts and service for their strikers for the manufacturer to bother solving the problems.
As a prior stryker vehicle commander, i can say they broke down often. In fact, as i was taking command of my first stryker, it broke down while driving out to the field for a 2 week training cycle. Were they a great asset, 100% but they did have issues often.
Yeah military people especially infantryman lmao
@@vlad23i love hearing first hand accounts. Thank you for sharing 😍
And now they will even worse, since they are way more complex.
Exactly what I was worried about, green house gas emissions; especially during a war.
More emissions more fuel burn more logistical difficult to ship huge amount of fuel
this video is full of shit. the reason for hybrid engine has nothing to do with green house emission.
Military vehicles are a big contributor for increased green house emissions? I wonder how they compare to the emissions from private jets.
the US military is no longer an effective fighting force. what a joke
Yeah especially to ship those organic vegetables for vegan diets. 😂
@@Jakezillagfw They ship soy too to feed animals like you
@@paxundpeace9970 It was a joke I was being sarcastic.
Does anyone really care about the emissions. I literally haven’t spent a single second worried about what military vehicles or jets emissions are. Freaking hippies.
If it could run on electric for short bursts it could move into a position. Silently. In a tank that would be a priceless asset.
Unfortnatly electric militry vehickes would not be any use. Primarily the weight, terain and availability of charging in the histile fields. some countries are using or going to trial hybrid, copied from uk forces site. Hybrid experimental prototypes of the Army’s Foxhound, Jackal and MAN SV vehicles have been developed and their performance is being evaluated under a circa £9M million programme which is being led by Defence, Equipment & Support.
The only problem I really notice is that It will not matter if it's silent, because y'know, thermals.
Even if it's electric the rubber wheels will still generate heat by rubbing sensually across the plains.
@@elaqgarahulelpon1479 War is 99% waiting, and 1% bloody battle.
electric battery of hybrid system is great for that 99% waiting time.
@@davidjacobs8558
So first off thermals are the most common sight used in combat because they are just that good, and it negates the whole 'moving silently' thing.
I'd argue that it's more 25% moving things 50% waiting 15% privates and specialists goofing off/stealing because they are bored 5% getting yelled at for goofing off (good specialists don't get yelled at) and 5% doing anything combat related.
Besides if your waiting for 99% of the time you probably don't need to be silent for the majority of it.
@@elaqgarahulelpon1479 don't want to use the big engine when not moving.
hybrid means the vehicle can quickly move at moments notice, and sensors and weapon system can operate without the big engine running.
there are vehicles with small auxillary engines for that, but battery hybrid is even better, because hybrid battery can move the vehicle, where as auxilliary engine can't.
I hope we're not worried about emissions and it's instead to save on fuel economy which makes more strategtic sense.
I love how the video states emissions caused climate change.......
@@alexanderbaker2744oh, that’s because they did. You’re welcome~
An RV: toilet, shower, sink, bed, stove, TV, variant would be good for those stationed in filth.
Running silent at night in an urban war arena would be definitely advantageous don’t you think? I like the concept , I hope it works.
Needs an extendable boom for optics and targeting and remote Javelin launch capability
More technically speaking, the Stryker is more like a wheeled APC (excepting the newest Dragoon variant, which is heavier armed and more like an APC-cum-AIFV as with the Ukrainian BTR-4 Bucephalus).
Cum?
The hybrid will also have a low heat signature.
So the the Styker became the Mastodon APC (Halo Wars 2). It gets even better and better
If you are designing combat vehicles to fight greenhouse gas emissions, then you have lost all contact with reality. There are sound military reasons to produce battery electric military vehicles and hybrids, but reducing greenhouse emissions is not one of them. I don’t see anyone in Ukraine wringing their hands about greenhouse emissions. They are too busy trying not to die every day!
yep this is a shit video. the reason for hybrid engine is it allows more electrical output to power sensors and potential directed energy weapons, lower acoustic signature lead to stealthier operations, and most importantly cutting logistical chain which if the war in ukraine proves to be a crucial weak and fatal point of russian military.
By reducing fuel consumption you eliminate logistical problems on the field. Imagine calling for ammo and they run out of gas. Or u have a nice hiding spot and your engine runs too hot to operate and is picked up by thermal optics
exactly
@@Donkeymaster9000 But... but....... electric engines = no loud vroom vroom and I want loud vroom vroom on my tanks while tanks shoot shoot!!!!
I suppose the only positive I can think of being 'green' in a military vehicle is the amount of noise reduction for ambush purposes and possible further range, beyond that I dont quite get it yet either, who knows perhaps this may be the future as we are unaware yet of any new incoming factors to warfare
I was in a Stryker unit, we absolutely hated them lol only thing that was nice was the AC if it worked...
i know theres some haters about this. the silent"mode" would be valuable in battlefiled situations in improving "surprise" to the enemy in recon situations, although may not be much of an asset in the middle of battle scenarios! just like the way, i mow my lawn early morning or at night time with my electric riding mower, without my neighbors complaining about the noise! lol.
(A lot of variants )
Me: Stryker is a Stryker
Лучше Страйкера может быть только Страйкер👍👍👍👌
Damn that’s a lot of variants.
I love these because I can make a cheack point easily on any paved road
Look, people, I want to know Scotty Kilmer's opinion on this thing.
6:39 that literally makes zero sense unless you’re stretching out the fighting compartment. You’ve done moved back the driver all the way back to the squad leader position.
Tbh we'd be better off just replacing these with Boxers.
Looks suspiciously similar to Patria AMV, but I guess they just had to get inspiration from the best to make the new best.
How has the Stryker been around for 40 years like noted in the video of StrykerX
As someone who’s been a Stryker vehicle crew, imagine driving the Stryker all the way back from the VC position. Hell nah.
It looks pretty rad.
Most of the upgrades are Absolutely sensible. Nothing radical just looking at what's happening around the world, in the military situations and environmental and technological. Then looking at what's available and changing it to fit the new scenario. Nothing radical just evolution if it's not broke don't fix it . This will give the Stryker x stealth capabilities, and with night vision it will be able to move around like a ghost ! . Question will the weight increase and if it has will this affect the vehicles ability to be transported.
It's not "developed by General Dynamics", it's a licensed upgrade of the OTO-Melara Centauro from Italy...look it up
I would like the m1128 with the m68 main gun. Thank you. Can that be shipped FedEx.
THEY BETTER PUT ON A BALLISTIC SKIRT ON THOSE WHEELS OR IT WILL BE DEAD IN THE WATER
How quiet can a 20- 30 ton 8 wheeled vehicle be? Even on a paved road thats a lot of tire noise.
From what I can gather, the electric mode is only meant to be used in 0-low speed applications like when switching fighting positions or in an LP/OP
Add some background musics for less awkwardness between pauses
I'd rather have a boxer.
I'd be interested to see what happens when the battery pack takes a hit
Your daddy Xi Jinping knows the answer
kinda the same thing when the engine takes an RPG, are you gonna have the parts on hand to fix the entire unit?
@@livid4370 Not the same at all.. have you seen lithium explode?
I think a Stryker taking a hit would be pretty bad regardless of battery pack or not.
Plus, battery banks have been used on other warfighting vehicles for a while now, most notably on warships like submarines. Just design around the battery pack, protect it, and give it a sort of "blow-out" mechanism.
@@robertjohnston8531have you seen a fuel tank take a hit?
The US needs a quality IFV that can defend against drone attacks, or one that operates in tandem with anti-drone units.
How many soldiers can it carry? 9 or 6
Light version of the GTK Boxer!? But not that good protected and not that modular..
I call bs on a stryker being loud the jltv is way louder . Stryker is probably one of the quietest vehicles we have
Ima have to work on a futuristic lunch box soon rip for me.
It’s a pain in the ass to work in the rust bucket lunch box on wheels I hope this one won’t be a pain in the ass.😂
Better armour and design than tanks (my opinion)
Unmatched fighting vehicle until it met the Russian Lancet.😂
I don't think I have seen a video or a claim that a Lancet has hit a LAV 6 yet. US Bradleys have been decimated, but Canadian LAV 6 is still unknown.
Not until it met a russian APC which Stryker would destroy easily.
Looks like something out of 1980s sci-fi.
Cool rocking video as usual. Thanks ! 0:44 it comes in 11 different configurations ??? Woow ! Interesting! Calling for a Joint North American PPP Social Security Defense & Service Institution.
Kind of almost EXACTLY like the Canadian LAV 700 Super Bison...
The cyber Stryker will have unbreakable viewports...
Ukrainian Logistics Corp: "AAAAAAAH STOP!! STOP STOP STOP STOP!!"
need this for philippine army and marines 1000 unit...
Ah man normally when someone says that about something it fails
Abram X and Stryker X
Wheels are better than tracks
I want one, never let it be said I don't care about the environment!!!
did we really need a stryker x? I mean the stryker already does everything?
the U.S. Army can do without the MGS & Mortar Carrier variant because of the sheer variety of land based mobile weapon systems already available with the U.S. Army . . . besides both variants are not even necessary in practical real world scenario except for showcasing stop gap capabilities . . .
The 120mm mortar carrier is heavily used
In the warfare?
its like a tesla car, but armored to the tooth and made for the US army
If Tesla's were diesel hybrids then sure.
@William Walker exactly. some of these posts I read are comical if not disappointing
Best like Puma until few weeks ago?
Let's see them in real deal war and talk later...
Good luck recharging the batteries when empty. While conventional apc's etc are refueld quickly, electricity takes much longer and you have to have the electr-recharge infrastructure for it. Eelectricity at the battlefield is hard to get. But hey ho, the military is going green LOL
It's not full electric, its a hybrid. The diesel engine will recharge the batteries. When running in "silent" mode, the batteries can help keep the vehicle running without putting out a lot of noise and heat (very important for maintaining a low thermal signature). Plus, electric motors are excellent at delivering torque and will be very handy to have when dealing with poor terrain, steep inclines, or when towing heavy objects. On top of that, they help cut down on fuel consumption, reducing the strain on logistics.
Using hybrid technology in a military environment is perfectly logical and gives a LOT of additional advantages besides being "green". Submarines and warships have been doing this sort of power setup for decades now.
Wagner group need to slide only one Molotov cocktail in it's path to put this tank up in flames
Can’t wait to slip off of it😂😂
Bring it
Here goes the United States using overpriced stuff that only works well in PERFECT conditions fighting insurgents cough cough
Mobile defensive powerbank..
1:46 The Striker is responsible for climate change? So not only do you need to worry about deadly enemy fire, but also deadly greenhouse gasses. Scary world to be a tanker. 3:54 Here is the real reason.
That noise "problem" is absolute BS. I was part of the stryker brigade renamed "Ghost" brigade for our quiet operations in Samara, Iraq. Read about it fool.
Fortunately the M1128 has been retired.
Coming soon to a city near you, get fucking ready y'all.
New Bradley when?
It came out a couple years ago but I’m sure it’s being worked on
@@Thememelord134 you mean the M2A4.. BradleyX 🤔
Send it to Ukraine. Let’s see how it does. 😂😂😂
Battery fires strike me as a potential vulnerability.
About as vulnerable as a fuel tank fire when you take a hit.
@@kolinmartz Fuel tank fires can be extinguished with Halon
The primary emphasis on making military vehicles more "green" rather than primarily being concerned with making them more effective war fighting machines is disturbing. The military, at the behest of the current leadership (such as it is) is losing focus.
It's only marketed as "green" because of PR. The advantages of using a hybrid powertrain go FAR beyond cutting down on emissions. It makes the vehicles quieter, cuts down on their thermal signature, reduces the strain on fuel consumption and logistics, gives the vehicles enhanced mobility because of the electric motors, and helps evolve the technology which can eventually trickle down to the civilian automotive market.
It's a win-win.
You're right. It sucks to be harder to detect while having better fuel consumption attributes so you don't tax your supply chain.
Yeah *drily* You know it's good if it has an "X" or an "i" on the name....
cant help but think that 'X' is not a good name... what will the next revision be? XX?
X is just the standard term the US military uses for all of it's experimental/prototype equipment i.e X-35 became F-35 X-22 became F-22. Once the Stryker X, or something like it, is finished the x will be removed.
@@davecallanan6004 The stryker X is like the Abrams X is a demonstrater by the industry how a future vehicle could be specified
MGS is being phased out.
May I ask why a military specs would think of "green" and "to reduce climate change" if their missile and bombs would cause worse than global warming?
MFW we make killing machines eco-friendly.

Good video good
Thanks for the visit
If it had a bigger gun then it would be unmatched, the BTR armament is much better than Stryker's armament...
Russia and u.s have different ways of waging wars , btr and Stryker each one of them have it's advantages and disadvantages
So Stryker not having the same fire as btr doesn't mean it is worse it is just not designed to fight the same way as btr 82
Depends on the variant. Most BTRs like BTR 60 and 70 use heavy machine guns I think, 14.5 mm. The newest BTR 80 do have bigger guns but as you can see in Ukraine, there aren’t much of them
@@DU-km3bw meant the BTR 80 yeah, more specifically the best version they got, the BTR 82A. They had a total of around 1500 before the war startet, where around 400-500 BTR-80’s have been lost (all variants), so got about a 1000-1100 total BTR-80’s left…
The striker is being upgraded as we speak so it will be able to overmatch the BTRs. Stryker's now have tow missile launchers, motar carriers, Command and Control variants and lighter armed (battle taxi's) with 50cals and mk 19s.
They had a support 105mm Stryker that is being retired. (Hope I didn't miss any varriants.)
The current programs are testing are the 30mm auto cannons(these have been already show cased and I think fielded in small numbers) , a new AAA system with a 30mm chain gun airburst capabilities, stingers and a AAA anti drone capability jammer.
The 30mm Dragoon will over match BTRs and help better support infantry.
The dragoon has a 30mm cannon and Javelins
looks like knock off BTR, and even then. The superior slavics still managed to make theirs more beautiful even though its like 40 years old already
China will have a matching Prototype in 2 Weeks, and a Take-away Vehicle in 2 years. So the question is: how long will it be "Unmatched"?
LAV700 not good enough
Well, seems official, if you can see outside the cockpit with your own eyes, your vehicle is outdated. Sounds cool in theory!
Just a new skin proposed by games industry.
This is a talk by godless people!! No matter how good is an armoured vehicle as time passed by there would be a much better new one. Don't forget the Chinese, German, French, Korean and Japanese have good brains too.😂
Solid list....seeing as the US has defeated every one them or bailed them out of comprehensive defeats.
China LOL....They haven't had an original idea since the Ming Dynasty. The most derivative thinkers on the planet....If they can't copy it they fake it until they can steal enough to make a convincing enough lookalike.
Your idea of newer always wins is brilliant...
Total number of vehicles, the training, or the technology leveraged is always exactly even...
So you think the US would lose to a tiny European nations defense force with a small number of "newer" IFV's
against all the US military as they usually bring it all.....even if they were using series 3 or 4 Strykers like the ones given to Ukraine.....
These will help us defeat our greatest enemy...Climate Change

They should've went with a diesel not this candy ass nonsense 😂
You get a thumbs down just for saying climate change:)
i'm a military utub channel nerd...don't talk to me about anthropomorphic climate change. it's a conspiracy theory. no sub thumbs down.
Okay, had to stop watching when the moronic statement "...which led to the climate change." COMPLETELY calls into question this channels intelligence.
