FeatureS of Mark 7

DTW’s latest upgrade of the Tempest is the Mark 7 introduced in 2008.

In addition to the features described below, the MK 7 incorporates an engineering innovation recently developed by DTW engineers – a system of Maximum Power Distribution (MPD). Simply described, this system is designed to make optimum continuous use of engine power by distributing unused power in the flail to the tracks and vice versa, so that no engine power is wasted.
