Motorized infantry is the first stage towards the mechanization of an army. Civilian trucks are readily adaptable to military uses of transporting soldiers, towing guns, and carrying equipment and supplies. That greatly increases the strategic mobility of infantry units, which would otherwise rely on marches or railroads. In practice, armies have found it advantageous to develop trucks to military specifications, such as all-wheel drive, to have vehicles that function reliably in extremes of weather and terrain.
These units are practical to hold strategic targets, such as towns or cities as well as scout missions and support. They are highly adaptable.

Defined as a light armored recon vehicle but essentially a tank on wheels, the EU LGS Fenek is anything but light. As standard, it is armored against 7.62 mm rounds, and should the mission demand, it is fully capable of being mounted with additional armour.
