Whichever way you see it, it's still military and armoured. |

the same is the HUMVEE and that still goes to off road category |

There are unarmoured versions of the HMMWV as well |

well ANTP already clarified this category meant more for the likes of tanks, APC, self propelled artillery |

So... basically, an armoured car specifically designed for use by the military is by definition not a military armoured vehicle? |

The category is for vehicles which do not fit either in the "cars" or "trucks" category, as it is in "others", so typically the tanks and other special vehicles. Not sure what this one is considered exactly, it looks quite like an off-road vehicle (hence Mike's comment I suppose) but if it is a special-purpose vehicle that only exists in such version, and not just an armoured version of a regular one (like a Humvee) it is not so wrong to list it that way. If I had to chose I would list it as off-road maybe because of how it looks, but I don't care enough to argue about that -- Last edit: 2015-03-05 17:37:44 |

"Military armored vehicle" is the right designation for this "Véhicule Blindé Léger" (Light Armored Vehicle) which, as far as I know, never had a "civilian" version. |
