M1117 is a modern American armored war tool. The first prototypes were made in 1997 and mass production was started in 1999 and still continues. The provocation is provided by a single Cummins 6CTA8.3 260 HP engine. The vehicle's weapons consist of a 40 mm MK.19 automatic bombajar and two 12.7 and 7,62 mm machine guns.

The M1117 was initially developed by Textron Marine and Land Systems as a special initiative. The manufacturer was based on cars in the Cadillac Cage Commnado series. However, it provided many improvements. First of all, he introduced a V -shaped body bathtub that increases the protection against a mine burst or so -called fugasaya. He also improved the armor of the car and increased his mobility. The M1117 vehicle can also be transported by air by C-17 aircraft or CH-53E helicopters. Serial production began at an early date like 1999, but after the experience gained from operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the US military power significantly increased the order of M1117 vehicles, especially military police units. M1117 users outside the US are users Afghanistan, Bulgaria, Iraq, Canada and Colombia.
