A military police vehicle is a vehicle used by the military police units of a country's armed forces.
United States

When forward deployed, United States military police units customarily employ HMMWVs or internal security vehicles called the M1117 Armored Security Vehicle. When conducting on-post law enforcement, military police typically employ patrol cars similar to those used by civilian police departments. [1] Overseas U.S. Military installations may employ patrol cars similar to those of their host country.
Special agents of the United States Army Criminal Investigation Division or other military special investigation branches, may employ unmarked civilian vehicles in the course of their duties within the United States. In combat zones, these agents employ the same tactical vehicles as regular military police units.
United Kingdom
When in the field, members of the British Army's Royal Military Police, Royal Air Force Police, and Royal Navy Police use Land Rovers with typical police equipment and signs reading "MILITARY POLICE". When in garrison or on-shore, they use regular civilian-type patrol cars, but with appropriate RMP, RAFP or RNP markings.[2] Special units such as the Special Investigation Branch may utilize unmarked patrol cars from time to time.
Germany
