A shipment of 54 new Humvees arrived in port at Djibouti City, Djibouti this week, as part of a $31 million train-and-equip partnership between the U.S. government and the Djiboutian military.
The military vehicles will be delivered to the Armed Forces of Djibouti (FAD) for use by its Rapid Intervention Battalion, a FAD advanced infantry battalion being trained and equipped by the U.S. military.
The $31 million train-and-equip deal facilitated by U.S. Embassy Djibouti, U.S. Africa Command, U.S. Army Africa, and Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa reflects the strong, enduring, and cooperative relationship enjoyed by the United States and the Republic of Djibouti.
