Well what can I say... Useful in a war zone, is this what the human race has come to? Maybe I need an e-bike that can take me to a friendlier planet...

It is a cargo bike which is quite interesting. I think you could probably carry 50 kilos of lithium batteries and a generator and still have room for a couple of children! And a robot nanny of course.

Am I mixing it up with a bakfiets?

They mentioned using it to drop food and medical supplies in a war zone, i.e a humanitarian role.
There are already numerous more sophisticated ways to deliver munitions to enemy targets in war zones.

Yeah right, eco-friendly war zone transport... As if it mattered that it was an e-bike. "We have reduced CO2 emmissions by 18% in our war zones by the use of self driving e-bikes". Lovely, saving the planet one war at a time...

There will be someone along shortly to point out its not an EAPC since you don't have to pedal it. They will then post links to mopeds

..and might chuck in a bit of casual racism along the way.
