During the project, which will take place in stages over the next three years, the IDF will extensively outfit the Hummers of models A0 and A1, repairing them and preparing them for use before transporting them to Israel. Following their arrival in Israel, the vehicles will be further outfitted, according to the specific operational needs of the units that will receive them. | |||
