This type of vehicle is known as a "HEMET." Not sure of the spelling but it is the pronunciation of the military acronym, similar to the way "Humvee" is derived from High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle. |

HEMTT, which stands for "Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck," and Oshkosh builds them. http://www.oshkoshdefense.com/defense/products~hemtt~home.cfm -- Last edit: 2008-12-27 14:36:52 |

No the M classification refers to the overall configuration (type of container or bed, number of axles, or other equipment such as those used for recovery operations). |

Looks like the older Stewart & Stevenson LMTVs' in the background. As well as some M936 wreckers. -- Last edit: 2014-12-03 02:23:02 |
