10 Best Military Light Utility Vehicles 4x4 In The World | Carztech

Military light utility vehicle, or simply light utility vehicle (LUV), is used for the most golden weight class military vehicle category. A Jeep-like four-wheel drive vehicle for military use is, by definition, lighter than other military trucks and vehicles, inherently compact and usually with light or no armor, with short body overhangs for nimble all-terrain mobility, and frequently around 4-passenger capacity. Worldwide, and since the earliest large-scale mechanization of the military, hundreds of different light vehicles have been used for military utility service, ranging from readily available commercial products, just repainted in military colors, to purpose-designed tactical vehicles, that were specially developed for military applications and operation in forward areas. Light utility vehicles are typically general or multi-purpose, used to carry troops, staff, (mounted) weapons, supplies, evacuate wounded soldiers and many other diverse roles.

The commercial 4×4 sector of the van market consists of passenger SUV models that have been converted for light commercial vehicle (LCV) use. In this sense, they are similar to car-derived vans – which are based on ordinary passenger cars – but generally much larger and with far greater off-road capability. With the introduction of electronic systems and the ability to switch between 2WD and 4WD, this is no longer the case. Because AWD or four-by-fours are harder-working vehicles, they will inevitably use slightly more fuel than their counterpart 2WD vehicles.

Here is the list of the 10 Best Military Light Utility Vehicles In The World In 2023:

In 1939, the U.S. Army began standardizing its general-purpose trucks by limiting procurement to five chassis payload classes, from 1⁄2-ton to 7+1⁄2-ton, but the army was "to use commercial trucks with only a few modifications such as brush guards and towing pintles .."However, in 1940 the categories were revised. A new, lightest chassis, "quarter-ton" class was introduced, at the bottom of the range, and the 1⁄2-ton category was supplanted by a 3⁄4-ton chassis – both were classified as "light" trucks; 1+1⁄2-tonners were considered "medium".

The Willys MB Jeep of World War II used by the U.S. Army is probably the most widely known vehicle of this class. Over 640,000 Jeeps were built for World War II, and they inspired many vehicles similar in layout, or function. Besides the jeep, the U.S. also produced some 330,000 half- and three-quarter-ton Dodge WC series trucks, in a wide range of variants. Together, the Willys and Ford jeeps and Dodge's WC-series trucks made up nearly all of the WW II U.S. light vehicle output of almost a million (~988,000) units.
