A military vehicle is a vehicle that includes all land combat and transportation vehicles, which are designed for or are in significant use by military forces throughout the world. Vehicles that are armored or intended for combat are often referred to as armoured fighting vehicles. Military aircraft with close air support can often destroy armored military vehicles such as tanks and armored personnel carriers. Military vehicles are normally armour plated and strong but vulnerable against rockets.
