Is any model of military HMMWV equipped with ABS? If so, what year did it make its first appearance?

This is for research into clearing up Maryland's motor vehicle requirements. Many thanks.

@Retiredwarhorses forgive my ignorance, but what are REV trucks? I understand the ECV.
Reliablility
Enhanced
Vehicle
serial numbers 300.000 and up
geared fan drive, 3-piece frame rails, Wilwood 4-piston brake calipers, water cooled transfer case and rear diff, plastic master cylinder reservoir, etc.
FWI, I had ABS until I retired.

Wow, no kidding? Major improvements. These are "Bouji" HMMWV's.

How does the abs work on the new models?

Are there sensors/slip rings at each wheel or a brain box at the proportioning valve/splitter to master cyl?

Find out how we can order this that the govt is ordering to upgrade trucks to ABS:

“To prevent vehicle rollovers”. Sounds like it will be a lot of stuff that will break. Electronic stability control ? Drivers should also read the operator’s manual...not rely on the vehicle to stop them from bad driving.
