What is a subsystem?
A subsystem is a system within a larger system.
Can you think of some example of subsystems?

Propulsion
The propulsion system provides the force that moves the vehicle
toward the destination.
Example: Engine and Transmission

Structural
Structural systems accommodate a vehicle’s cargo and form the basic framework of the vehicle.
Examples: Chassis and Body

Suspension
The suspension system supports the weight of a vehicle as it
moves down a pathway.
Example: Shocks, Wings, and Tires

Control
Control systems control speed and direction of a vehicle’s path.
Examples: Steering Wheel and Brakes

Guidance
Guidance systems provide information concerning the
control of the vehicle.
Examples: Maps and GPS
