goodyear military h1 tires different sizes??

The other day I ran across what I thought were goodyear military OZ tires but they said 33x12.5x15's on them did they ever produce these tires in multiple sizes.? Its puzzling because I have only heard of the 37's in this style tread if so where can I get some or would they be discontinued? Any input would be great I have a set of the 37's for my 78 but if I could find some in say 31's they would go great on my ,s10

The smallest h1 tire i know of is a 36 and all hummers runs 16.5 rims so they are not true military tires.

The Wangler R/T tires were used in late 70's to mid to late 80's , they has the same tread pattern as the 36x12.50x16.5 oz Military tires used on 8 bolt hummer wheels.

The goodyear wrangler MT is a common H1 37 inch military tire, it was also popular in other sizes in the 90s.

Where the tread meets the sidewall looks funny to me it might be a recap tire.
