Dutch Army develops high tech Panzer speed bumps
There's really not a group to put this in that's a good fit, it's actually an electric bicycle (because it has pedals) but I know it will get ignored in the bicycle group.

Near silent human electric hybrid technology
4 KW (Peak) Sealed Floating Drivetrain with an integrated Rohloff 14 speed gearbox in parellel with a patented Smesh-Gear with fly by wire shifting.
Reaches a top speed of >70 km/h.
The bike has total payload of up to 160kg including the rider over tough terrain. The cargo rack has up to 40kg of payload.
Designed for military reconnaissance and surveillance operations since it delivers significant power via a stealthy electric drivetrain.
Ultimate manoeuvrability for both models. The URB version is optimized for agile city use, resulting in rapid cornering. The DRT version is designed specifically for powering over tough terrains.
