Thats a good point actually, i'd never thought about what it stood for. But i don't think its as obvious as that. As well as armoured vehicles, it also applies to Land Rovers and trucks. Plus all the spare parts and tools have an FV number, as do, i think, our weapons. I'm sure there is an FV number on the side of the SA 80.</font>[/quote]maybe some meaning with "verifier"? I'm just guessing

As for "M": what about "Military" or "Model"

Cheers,
