'''Medium infantry''' refers to ground troops, less heavily armed and armored than [[heavy infantry]], but more so than [[light infantry]]. In the [[early modern period]], medium infantry has largely gradually eliminated due to discontinued use of [[body armour]].

In the United States Army, [[Stryker]] Infantry is considered Medium Infantry, since they are "heavier" than [[light infantry]] but "lighter" than [[mechanized infantry]].
