Oshkosh L-ATV military vehicles for sale

Oshkosh Defense

With the US military's fleet of HUMVEEs getting older, the DOD is looking for a potential replacement. The Oshkosh Corporation of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, has thrown its hat into the ring with the L-ATV. The name stands for Light Combat All-Terrain Vehicle. Like many vehicle names, this tells us what it's for. The 6.6 liter Duramax engine and 6 speed Allison transmission can carry this beast anywhere it may need to go. The armor is still classified, but the weapons mounting points are numerous. While this is fully intended as a military vehicle, the unarmored version is available for civilian sale from a select number of dealers around the US.

Renault Sherpa Military Vehicles For Sale

The Sherpa 2 is one of the six versions of the SHERPA LIGHT family of 4x4 tactical and light armoured vehicles developed by French company Renault Trucks Defense.

Renault Trucks

The US's HUMVEE sent other Western militaries into a scramble to find an equivalent. They needed an all terrain light vehicle for staff use, reconnaissance, and basic transport. Renault Trucks Defense found an answer for France in the Sherpa 2. In its military configuration, the Sherpa 2 is armored with ballistic armor, anti-mine protection, and IED kits. Additionally, it's Euro 5 engine produces 215 horsepower, giving it a top speed of around 75 miles per hour. Its rigid axles may seem odd in an offroad vehicle, but the innovative and robust design makes up for this. Produced since 2006, there are plenty of surplus Sherpa 2s on the market for civilian purchase. Pick one up for the perfect offroad vehicle for a weekend in the mud.

Stanislav Kozlovskiy

Russian engineering has a reputation for toughness and reliability, and the GAZ Tiger is no exception. A 4×4 offroad military vehicle, the GAZ Tiger has a multipurpose design. Its basic mission is to transport troops and equipment both offroad and on, but its many possible variations give it a lot of flexibility. Its unarmored versions are staff cars.

Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6

Mercedes-Benz

At one time it was the largest and second most expensive street-legal vehicle in the company's lineup. The Mercedes-Benz G63 is an odd blend of military engineering and high end civilian luxury. Based in part on the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon and designed and produced for the Australian military, the G63 features an advanced automatic transmission that can be adjusted for either on or off road conditions.

The ground clearance is high enough to navigate most obstacles when piloted by a good driver. For off-road use, the G63 has the ability to automatically adjust tire pressure via an internal compressor in order to better adapt to sandy or muddy conditions. However, while the military versions have yet to hit the surplus market, civilian street legal versions abound for those who can afford a Mercedes-Benz price tag. And, in terms of military vehicles for sale go, it has to be one of the most stylish.

Polaris MV 850

Polaris

While other manfacturers were attempting to create the next HUMVEE, Polaris went in a different direction creating a military ATV. As far as military vehicles for sale go, the Polaris MV 850 might look like a fun off-roading toy, but don't let it fool you. This is a military vehicle through and through. The non-pneumatic tires are state of the art and can withstand small arms fire. The lighting is adjustable to work either the bare eye or with night vision equipment. The ballistic armor is cutting edge, and the 850cc engine packs enough punch to haul 600lbs of payload anywhere wheels can carry.

Supacat LRV 400

Supacat Light Reconnaissance Vehicle

Supacat

Currently in its second version, the Supacat LRV 400 is a military vehicle in continuous evolution. The LVR stands for "light reconnaissance vehicle" which tell us its intended role in a military environment. The LRV 400's versatility is apparent in its list of optional features, including remote weapons station, weapon mounts, smoke grenade launchers, IR lights, on board water boiler, Pinnacle compass, canvas roof and side screens, and forward and rear facing IR cameras. While the LRV 400 does come with multiple weapons mounts, it does not ship with the weapons. This means that it is one of several military vehicles for sale in many parts of the world.

When you sneeze, have you ever said, "Hand me a Kleenex" even though the brand of tissue may not be Kleenex? That's how it is with referring to tracked over-snow vehicles as Snowcats. The Tucker Sno-Cat Corporation trademarked the name in the 1960s when it began to produce this terrain-specific military vehicle. Since then many producers make Snowcats, but Tucker – who's vehicles have done transports, cargo, tactical, etc. type of work for the U.S. military – was the orginial. Because the models cary so heavily – there's no consistent price. But expect a Tucker Sno-Cat to reasonably fetch $100,000 on average.

It was the main battle tank of the United Kingfom during that period. It's extremely powerful main gun and excessive armor were the top of the line when the MK-10 was introduced in the mid-60s.

But now, it is available for purchase by just about any citizen who wants to drive a tank!
