ABSTRACT:
An amphibious vehicle may be connected end-to-end with a series of other similar vehicles to provide an amphibious vehicle train. Each vehicle has a hull with a plurality of wheels mounted on each side. Two drive trains are provided for driving the trains on respective sides of the hull. The drive trains can be driven at differential speeds to steer the vehicle. At each end of the vehicle are two power take-off means, one for each drive train coupled to a similar power take-off in the next adjacent vehicle. The power plant for the complete train is found in a single unit.
