Don,
I didn't include the three from Post #2. First two offered seemed to be tied into the M2 Bradley for numbers (ULAN/PIZARRO) from articles. Also didn't include any armed with the heavier 14.5mm MG or 40mm GLs. Also excluded some with multiple weapons capability as only MG variants were shown. Also Imp might be right at least from this source, the older units might be harder to track down. Anyway segment #1 IFVs only:

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

[DRG]

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
