Everyone

The Americans and those of us who collect their stuff have it
reasonably easy when it comes to looking up the function/usage of
a part from it's nubmer, particularly so if it is a NATO standard
number.

However, is there any way to go about this for British stuff,
especially "FV" numbers stamped on most parts?

The problem being that the English don't tend to stamp NATO numbers
onto things the way the Americans do.

Regards
Doug
