convoys (military)

A military convoy is a organized group of vehicles, such as trucks, tanks, or personnel carriers, traveling together for security and efficiency. The purpose is to safely transport troops, supplies, or equipment across potentially dangerous areas, often through hostile or unstable environments. Convoys provide mutual protection against threats like ambushes, roadside bombs, or attack, by maintaining coordinated movement and communication. They are carefully planned with routes, travel speeds, and security measures, ensuring the safe delivery of essential resources and personnel during military operations.
