This paper proposes novel models of silent-watch of a combat vehicle (CV) and their application for a mission-aware energy management strategy (MAEMS). The MAEMS minimizes unnecessary battery discharge of a CV by controlling the power states of systems according to the mission needs and available battery capacity. Initial experiments show that the MAEMS consumes 3% less energy than the baseline energy management strategy (EMS) for one scenario and 1.8% less for the second scenario.
