Talk:Puma (German infantry fighting vehicle)

message: Why doesn't the Puma use the widespread 27mm Mauser ammunition, which is found in the Tornado? Why do the germans introduce a third 30mm ammunition, besides the 27mm and the 35mm used for the twin flak anti-aircraft tank? 82.131.210.162 (talk) 08:54, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: 30x173mm has gone from a "de facto" NATO standard  as of when you posted this to a full NATO standard as of 2012; it is STANAG 4624. DesiArcy (talk) 08:07, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Compliacted calibers? 

message: The Israeli Namer (vehicle) has definitly a more powerful engine, counting 895 KW. The power/weight ratio also is really not that different. Please rephrase.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.246.233.83 (talk) 12:36, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't forget the Namer is based on the Merkava chassis and share the same diesel engine from the Merkava Mark 3. De Grasse (talk) 02:12, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

message: While this is a smaller weapon than the western standard secondary armament (7.62 mm caliber MG), it offers the advantage that the crew can use the ammunition in their individual firearms.
Isn't the MG4 fed from a linked belt? If so, I don't see how the crew can use them in their magazine-fed weapons, unless this is somehow referring to a member or members of the squad (I don't know its makeup) who are carrying MG4s themselves. In either case, it should be reworded, since most of the crew would still be unable to use the ammo. Russ3Z (talk) 15:43, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not exactly hard to break down link. The actual ammunition is exactly the same; you just have to snap the rounds out of the links then load them into a magazine.--DaleCurrie (talk) 00:47, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Soldiers fill the magazines, as well as the belts, themselves, and know how to do so. They also know how to pick the bullets out again, that is from the back end, not by shooting.--2001:A61:260D:6E01:70F0:EBC0:F1EF:E853 (talk) 14:16, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

message: Please add a short paragraph that explains the key differences, in an objective manner. Explanation: I came here to try to find out what the fuzz is about in regards to Marder versus Puma.
I read the article about the Marder, but I have no idea why the Puma is supposed to be better? What were the reasons for going to the Puma? 2A02:8388:1600:A200:52F3:DC0A:2A2B:D63F (talk) 14:00, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
