Sendo o texto militar, provavelmente se refere ao trem de rolamento de tanques e veículos tracionados por esteira.

caterpillar track / continuous track / tank tread


Explanation:
O texto em português diz que esse "trem de rolamento" se encontra sobre rodas. Entendo que se refere aqui apenas à lagarta (esteira):

trem de rolamento sobre rodas com configuração 8x8 (oito por oito)
Caterpillar track on a 8x8 wheel drive

Lagarta (esteira):

A caterpillar track runs on top of a group of wheels called bogies. For example,

The vehicle's weight is transferred to the bottom length of track by a number of road wheels, or sets of wheels called bogies. (From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_track)
