AAVs are employed to conduct mechanized operations and for providing combat support in subsequent operations ashore. Such vehicles enable offshore shipping through rough seas and are alsocapable of traversing beaches, crossing rough terrain, and performing high-speed operations on roads. AAVs are equipped with armor to provide the ground combat element (GCE) as well as land and water operation capabilities. These vehicles are capable of restricting the enemies across land or water.
The need for safety systems has been an integral aspect since the advent of flights. They ensure the safe escape of pilots from any malfunctioning or damaged aircraft. The conventional escape systems consisted of only a recovery parachute. During the Second World War, the aircraft performances rapidly increased, which necessitated the escape systems for the crew to be equally fast. This led to the development of ejector seats. The traditional ejection seats were powered by a propellant-driven catapult.
