Nearly 5,100 up-armored Humvees have been delivered to Army and Marine Corps units in Iraq, with another 724 on ships bound for the theater..the Army has installed armor add-on kits on almost 400 Heavy Expanded Mobile Tactical Trucks..35 Palletized Load System tactical trucks and 450..Medium Tactical Vehicles...

In addition..the Army is in the process of buying the new Armored Support Vehicle...a "mini Stryker vehicle" that's larger and has more armor protection than even the up-armored or enhanced Humvees.
