The contract for the military's High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) was awarded to AM General in March 1983. The HMMWV series was intended to replace the various 1/4- to 1-1/4 ton vehicles then in service. The base model is the M998. The M998 can be configured as a two-seat cargo carrier, a two-seater with troop seats in the cargo bed or as a four-seater with a small load bed in the back. Numerous other versions include the M1037 shelter carrier, which is used to carry electronics and radio shelters, M1035 soft-top ambulance, M997 hardtop ambulance and M1025 slant back armaments carrier.

Production of the HMMWV began in 1984. Since production began, over 281,000 HMMWV's in numerous different models have been produced. First seeing combat in Operation Just Cause in 1989, it became a very well known vehicle during and after Operation Desert Storm in 1991, especially after the actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, helped convince AM General to release a civilian version called the Hummer.

The HMMWV has undergone numerous modifications to its powerplant, suspension and armor protection packages. Many, if not all of these modifications are the result of negative combat experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan during the past 12 years. The HMMWV has been purchased by the armies of numerous countries and will continue to see service for sometime to come.
