1. A military vehicle comprising:
a driveline including:
a first driver including an engine;
an energy storage system;
an accessory drive coupled to the engine, the accessory drive including a plurality of accessories and a first motor, the first motor electrically coupled to the energy storage system and positioned to facilitate selectively driving the plurality of accessories;
a transmission; and
a second driver coupled to the engine and the transmission, the second driver including:
a housing including an engine mount coupled to the engine and a backing plate coupled to the transmission
a second motor electrically coupled to the energy storage system, the second motor disposed within the housing and coupled to an input of the transmission; and
a clutch disposed within the housing and coupled to the second motor, the clutch configured to selectively couple an output of the engine to the second motor, the clutch is spring-biased into engagement with the engine and pneumatically disengaged by an air supply selectively provided thereto;
wherein, when the clutch is disengaged, the second motor is configured to receive power from the energy storage system and provide a mechanical output to the input of the transmission to drive the military vehicle; and
wherein, when the clutch is engaged, the second motor is configured to (i) selectively provide a mechanical output to the transmission to drive the military vehicle based on a mechanical input received from the engine and (ii) selectively generate electricity based on the mechanical input.
