DUKW.
The DUKW is a large six wheel drive (6x6) amphibious landing craft.
The arm, tube and rotating seal on the wheel hub
carry air to the tyre (tire) and allow the driver
to vary the tyre pressure on the move which is useful for
crossing variable terrain (while being shot at).
The dashboard carries a dial indicating the correct tyre pressure
for sand, coral and mud.
