Page "Armoured fighting vehicle" Paragraph 25

The military's armoured car is a wheeled armoured vehicle, lighter than other armoured fighting vehicles, primarily being armoured and / or armed for self-defence of the occupants.

Other multi-axled wheeled military vehicles can be quite large, and actually be superior to some smaller tracked vehicles in terms of armour and armament.

They usually do not have attached weaponry.

Armoured cars are often used in military marches and processions, or for the escorting of important figures.
