Walker agreed, saying that a generation of cars with a fuel tank in the past and an engine in the future would encourage the acceptance of futuristic renewable fuels...
Enter Omnitech. It makes a kit that converts a tank, humvee or even bulldozer to remote-controlled operation. Small boxlike compartments strapped onto the vehicle, each containing an assembly of wires, cables and machined steel parts, turn the steering wheel and work other controls.

Light vehicles carry gear that pinpoints the location of the mines for later destruction. Alternatively, tanks push heavy...
