Yep i went to where the tanks gods hang out and havnt got a good answer yet but im sure ill get it in the next 24 hours.

The more i put into this subject the less i get out and the more questions it creates, i did find out the M-551a1 was equip with a Thermal sight:cool:

The only good listing i can find on the net is here

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/index.html

go towards the bottom and they have some Weapon System Summary Data Sheets with all vehicles listed on it by category, but according to the tank graph the T-64 and M1 would only have a range of 1.
The only big errors i seen was the Amx-10rc at 1200m and aml-90at 2000m, thats backwards i know its the other way around. And the other thing i seen was the M-113 at 44mm armour,is that true? And the Fv432 at 12mm armour, if that is true than the british units traveling in the fv-432 need to have the defense value dropped.

Thanks for the pics, CC. Brings back some memories. I was stationed even farther south in the Hof Gap area & the terrain was even more closed than this. Plus it was more heavily forested, especially along the Czech/FRG border. Visibility was no more than 50 meters due to the desnity of the forests in that area.

The suggestion that no tank unit have a range of more than one is interesting, although it would have more of an impact, I believe, on NATO forces.
