The HMMWV, also called the Humvee, is a four-wheel drive light armored military truck manufactured by AM General. It is a frequent presence in giant monster films featuring the American military.

History

GODZILLA (1998)

In 1998, as a giant mutated iguana called Godzilla appeared from the Atlantic and started invading New York, the US military came to try and trap it. Due to the urban nature of Manhattan, the HMMWV was able to drive around the city and look for the monster easier than most other military vehicles that were present. When they finally found the monster, the HMMWVs chased him around the city. Although they were able to carry different weapons, none of them seemed to work; the weapons could not lock on to Godzilla, and when those weapons hit Godzilla they did not do anything to it. HMMWVs suffered heavy losses due to being the most involved vehicle in trying to catch Godzilla, as Godzilla burned them with its power breath them or smashed them aside with its feet.

Weapons

The HMMWV can be equipped with a 7.62mm machine gun, a .50 caliber machine gun, or a grenade launcher.
