The Israeli Army never scraps anything. They just turn it into something
more useful to them at the time. Are you referring to the Centurion APC
conversions? They took the turrets off and put a roof on bristling with
machine guns. It seems that they are better armoured against RPG attack
than the M113s.

Subject: [MV] CNN and ?TANKS? and a question for the lists.
Ryan,
Could you send an email to the news group at CNN explaining the differences
between a "Tank" & an "APC".
They keep talking about the hundred or so Israeli Tanks that did this or
that, and then showing columns of APC's with an occasional Tank.
I'm thinking there is a noticeable differences between the force applied by
100 Tanks and support, and 90 APC with how many troopers per APC, and maybe
10 Tanks.
And a question for the lists,
What are the short APC looking things with the front door/hatch that the
Israeli's are using?

Subject: [MV] Dingos Parts and Beltring?
Ok, It looks as if I probably won't be able to go to Beltring. My
boss is going to have a baby right about then which means I'm the one
in charge of our groups operations here at CNN. So, I can't go
hunting for Dingo bits
There are a number of things I'm looking for. If you know of a source
in the US great. If not a source in the UK is good too. Otherwise I
have to find a body going to Beltring to look for me.
The items of interest are
1. Lakeman Bren Mount
2. 1 Headlight with Black out or a single Blackout.
3. Engine Starting Crank
4. Throttle hand control components
5. Spare parts for the WS19 that would be mounted in a Dingo
Headsets, power cable, etc.
6. Antenna rods for the WS19
