Mechanized Infantry Combat Vehicle

A Mechanized Infantry Combat Vehicle (MICV) is a type of combat vehicle designed to transport infantry troops into battle while providing them with protection and firepower. It is classified under the supply class Combat, Assault, and Tactical Vehicles, specifically in the tracked category.

MICVs are typically equipped with tracks for mobility, allowing them to traverse various terrains. They are designed to carry a squad or platoon of infantry soldiers, providing them with armored protection against small arms fire, artillery shrapnel, and other battlefield threats.

In terms of firepower, MICVs are often armed with a combination of machine guns, automatic cannons, and anti-tank guided missiles. This allows them to engage enemy forces and provide fire support to the infantry troops they transport.

MICVs play a crucial role in modern warfare, combining the mobility and protection of armored vehicles with the ability to transport and support infantry forces. They are an essential component of mechanized infantry units, providing them with the necessary mobility, firepower, and protection to operate effectively on the battlefield.
