There were two fleets being procured to replace the MLVW: those IHC Defense trucks were primarily for the militia and there was to be a proper military truck for the regular force. I believe the reg force truck was to have armour capability but I could be wrong on that. Either way, it is once again reminiscent of when the reg force got the 76 chev 5/4 ton, while the militia got the 74 Dodge powerwagon followed by the 81 chev 3/4 ton, followed by the CUCV.
It will be interesting to hear what the reasoning is for this delay.
