The military’s first armored multipurpose vehicle (AMPV) will feature a welded aluminum hull like the Bradley Fighting Vehicle. Built by BAE Systems on an identical platform as the Bradley vehicle, the AMPV will replace the M113 family of armored personnel carriers to safeguard our troops in harm’s way. The battle-tested Humvee is also constructed from lightweight and corrision-resistant aluminum.
