The US Department of Defense has announced the signing of a 500 million shekel ($150 million) contract with Israel for the purchase of hundreds of Humvee light army jeeps for the IDF ground forces. The Times of Israel newspaper wrote about this on July 20.

It is reported that the Humvees will be produced by the American manufacturer AM General and the first few dozen vehicles will be delivered to Israel by the end of 2025, along with spare parts.

The IDF uses Humvees for troop transportation, evacuation of the wounded, logistics, communications, and other purposes.
