Israel’s Ministry of Defense has confirmed the delivery of the thousandth 4×4 armored David vehicle, produced in the United States, for use by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The delivery ceremony was attended by Israel’s Ambassador to the United States, Dr. Yechiel Leiter, and U.S. Congressman Mike Rogers, highlighting the industrial and defense cooperation between the two countries.
According to Israel’s Ministry of Defense, the delivery reflects the ongoing production of armored platforms designed to meet the operational requirements of the Israel Defense Forces during ongoing security operations.
The David vehicle is part of a family of compact armored platforms manufactured by MDT Armor, which also includes the Tiger armored vehicle.

Both platforms are designed for personnel transport and rapid-response missions, with an emphasis on mobility and adaptability in urban and rugged terrains.
The vehicles are widely used by Israel Defense Forces units for patrol, reconnaissance, and convoy protection tasks.
MDT Armor manufactures the vehicles in the United States as part of a broader effort to ensure stable supply chains and continuous delivery capacity during periods of high demand.
