Home›Armored Vehicles›Weapon Family›General Armored Fighting VehiclesGroupGeneral Armored Fighting VehiclesThis group collects the Armored Vehicles subcategory's members attested only as a general armored or armoured fighting vehicle, without a weapon-class value specific enough to place them in the Tanks, Infantry Fighting Vehicles and Armored Personnel Carriers, or Armored Cars and Reconnaissance Vehicles groups: wheeled, tracked and amphibious armored fighting vehicle families and multi-purpose armored platforms whose own attested description does not commit to a narrower role. Its 10 members are a genuine residual category defined by the vagueness of their own weapon-class attestation rather than a shared vehicle role; a future depth lane that narrows one of these vehicles' weapon-class value to a specific role can move it into the matching sibling group.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1916 1Browse ByAll General Armored Fighting VehiclesGeneral Armored Fighting Vehicles16 entriesGeneral Armored Fighting VehiclesFilter Results16 entriesWeapon Type or ClassAllAmphibious tracked armoured fighting vehicle (1)Armored fighting vehicle (1)armored riot-control vehicle (1)Armoured fighting vehicle (3)Armoured fighting vehicle family (1)armoured patrol vehicle (1)armoured recovery vehicle (1)infantry mobility vehicle (1)Light armored vehicle (1)light armoured half-track (1)Tracked amphibious fighting vehicle (1)Tracked armored fighting vehicle (1)tracked combat vehicle (1)Wheeled armoured fighting vehicle (1)CaliberAll.50 BMG (3)105mm (2)12.7x108mm (2)120mm (1)30 × 173 mm cartridge (1)30mm (3)35mm (1)7.62x51mm NATO (1)7.92x57mm Mauser (1)90mm (1)Introduced EraAll1941 (1)1944 (1)1962 (1)1970 (1)1972 (1)1979 (1)2001 (1)2005 (1)2008 (1)2016 (1)2018 (1)2019 (1)Service StatusAllIn Service (7)Retired (3)OperatorAllBritish Army (1)United States Army (2)Wars Used InAllFirst Chechen War (1)Gulf War (2)Iran-Iraq War (2)Iraq War (1)Russo-Georgian War (1)Russo-Ukrainian War (1)Second Chechen War (1)Soviet-Afghan War (1)Syrian Civil War (1)Vietnam War (1)World War II (1)ManufacturerAllAlvis plc (1)BAE Systems Platforms & Services (1)China North Industries Group Corporation Limited (2)Demag (1)General Motors (1)Iveco (1)Kharkiv Tractor Plant (1)Mowag (1)Nurol Holding Company (1)Rheinmetall (1)Textron Marine & Land Systems (1)Ukrainska Bronetekhnika (1)BrowseCompareSelect all 16Armored Multi-Purpose VehicleArmored Vehicles1 linkBeach armoured recovery vehicleArmored VehiclesCombat Vehicle Reconnaissance (Tracked)Armored Vehicles3 linksJackal (vehicle)Armored VehiclesLAV-300Armored VehiclesLynx (Rheinmetall armoured fighting vehicle)Armored VehiclesM114 armored fighting vehicleArmored Vehicles2 linksMowag PiranhaArmored VehiclesMT-LBArmored Vehicles9 linksPuma (Italian armoured fighting vehicle)Armored VehiclesSd.Kfz. 250Armored Vehicles1 linkTOMA (vehicle)Armored VehiclesType 05 Amphibious Fighting VehicleArmored VehiclesType 08Armored VehiclesVarta (infantry mobility vehicle)Armored VehiclesWPB AndersArmored VehiclesSources1.
