The concept vehicle, known as the ULTRA AP (Armored Patrol), was built to help the U.S. military evaluate multiple science and technology options, including ballistic and mine protection, that could benefit future vehicle design. The ULTRA AP combines proven vehicle technologies with advanced materials and engineering concepts.
Research and development for the ULTRA AP has been conducted by the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), which led a unique team of research engineers from both GTRI and the automotive industry. The research initiative has been sponsored by the Office of Naval Research (ONR).
