Default Re: IFV research

Here's an example of the wildly different info available. The subject vehicle is the FV107 Scimitar

http://www.army-guide.com/eng/product2890.html

claims 160 rounds are carried

http://www.militaryfactory.com/armor...p?armor_id=188

claims 76 rounds are carried

http://www.military-today.com/apc/fv107_scimitar.htm

doesn't say

and ( yes, I know what I said above..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FV107_Scimitar

says 165 rounds

and http://www.armedforces.co.uk/army/listings/l0024.html

says 160 rounds

All things considered I'm going with the 160 number but this is just one example of the inconsistancy of information available and why one source just isn't good enough
