    MEDINA, MINN– (July 18, 2006)   Polaris Industries Inc. today announced it has received another delivery order from USSOCOM to ship another 50 Light Weight All-Terrain Vehicles for military applications.  Polaris is currently under a five year contract awarded in 2004 with USSOCOM to provide All-Terrain Vehicles (ATV’s) with Military modifications designed to operate worldwide, around-the-clock on road and off-road terrain in all weather conditions.
