I can say with some experience that getting "every detail of the weapon/vehicle database correct" to the point someone won't nitpick some detail that doesn't agree with their source is an impossible feat.

My favourite example is and always will be the Tiger tank......you'd think by now that this...one of the most talked and written about tanks arguably ever.......that you would find no deviation in accepted spec but here's two picked at random

note the speed claimed
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_I
http://www.worldwar2aces.com/tiger-tank/

Road speed varies by 7.4 km/h 38 km/h vs 45.4 km/h

In this game that would be the difference between 13 and 15

This website
http://www.alanhamby.com/technical.shtml
agrees with wiki

http://www.fprado.com/armorsite/tiger1.htm

says 45 kph

Profile Publications claims max road speed 23 mph and that equals 37.01491 km/h

I rest my case.....

EDIT
and...
http://www.wwiivehicles.com/germany/...heavy-tank.asp

lists all claims.....
Speed - Road 22.9 mph, 23 mph, 23.5 mph, 24 mph
37 kph, 38 kph, 45.4
