Israel MOD Procures Hundreds of HMMWVs for IDF Ground Forces in Approximately $150M Contract

Israel Ministry of Defense

20/7/2025

The Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) announced today (Sunday) the signing of a major contract with AM General for the procurement of hundreds of High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV) for IDF Ground Forces. The IMOD Director General, Maj. Gen. (Res.) Amir Baram, approved the contract, which was signed by the IMOD Mission to the U.S.

The contract is valued at approximately $150 million (NIS 500 million) and includes the purchase of hundreds of HMMWVs, along with spare parts support. The first dozens of vehicles are expected to arrive later this year.

The HMMWVs are light combat mobility vehicles that serve a range of battlefield missions, including troop transport, casualty evacuation, logistical resupply, fire support, communications, maintenance, training, and special operations. The vehicles feature high cross-country mobility, extended operational lifespan, and operational and maintenance simplicity. The procured vehicle configuration includes adaptations enabling transport of over ten soldiers, evacuation of multiple casualties, and fire support capabilities.
