The Givati Brigade will become the second IDF infantry brigade to use 'Namer' Armored Personnel Carrier (APC). Currently used only by the Golani Brigade, the Namer is the IDF's most fortified APC, significantly more protected then the 'Achzarit' used by the Paratroopers and light years ahead of the Vietnam war-era M113. The Namer uses the same armor as the Merkava Tank, and is outfitted with the same Trophy anti-tank missile protection system.
