SEATTLE, Washington (AP) — A group of soldiers has been busy testing a series of high-tech military concept vehicles outfitted with remote weapons systems, night-vision capabilities and enough strength to sustain the concussion of a roadside bomb.

The vehicles, while only in the concept stage, are part of the Army’s $60 million program to modernize its aging tactical fleet for the challenges of today’s military missions.
