	Despite what the critics say, there is an impressive (if unsuccessful) defense of Los Angeles by a slew of ~~U.S.~~ armored vehicles; most of these vehicles are played by more easily available British stand-ins belonging to a movie rental company called Army Trucks Inc. The tanks are Chieftain tanks visually modified to pass as M1A1 Abrams, as also seen in many other movies such as ''[[Jarhead]]'' and ''[[Cloverfield]]'', while the M113 APCs are played by FV432 APCs. It seems only two real tanks were present, with CGI trickery used to create the remainder of the column.
