The M-113 Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) was constructed in 1960 and was fielded in Vietnam in 1962. It was converted to an ACAV in the mid-1960's; by adding armored shields around the .50 caliber machingun and TWO M-60 machinguns port & starboard rears, plus a short strip of "belly armor"(for land mine protection) beginning from the front end, on the bottom of the machine.
