Britain has purchased 200 Ocelot armored vehicles for its troops in Afghanistan. 

The 7.5 ton 4x4 MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicle will replace less well protected Land Rover 4x4 vehicles for patrol and supply duties.

The MRAP vehicle is 5.32 meters (17.4 feet) long, 2.1 meters (6.9 feet) wide and 2.35 meters (7.8 feet) tall. 

MRAPs use a capsule design and a V shaped bottom hull to protect the passengers and key vehicle components from mines and roadside bombs.
