New Military Vehicles Being Tested in AZ

The war zone isn't just on the battlefield. Often times you hear reports about roadside bombings in Iraq and Afghanistan and how deadly they are.

There is now an effort to keep soldiers safe on the road and it's happening right here in Arizona.

Two new Humvee's are being tested here in the state, that will hopefully offer soldiers more protection while on the roadways in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The mine-clearing Buffalo and the M-RAP ATV are being tested at the Yuma Proving Grounds in western Arizona.
