Re: IFV gun and ammo research
Pat, while I thank you for the effort I can go down the list at Military today and check these out just from the first link you gave.
What I need is the SPECIFIC information I asked for at the start. What is the guns ROF and MOST important >>what is the ammo carried for that main gun? Using the Puma link you provided it's nice but all it tells me is the gun is a dual-fed Mauser 30-mm cannon. No ROF, No ammo load Like I said. I appreciate the effort you put in but what I asked for was the info AND the links Don |
Re: IFV gun and ammo research
I found a source of data that gives me the primary information I was looking for.
Thanks everyone for their contributions. I have used them to cross check this new source and it's looking good Thanks Don |
