Looking at this one - why do Denmark have the CV9035 as an SP gun class 39, like 106 RCL Jeeps.

(The SP gun one will not protect passengers like the APC does, any so loaded grunts will be wiped off it by HE or MG fires like any other tank rider). Same goes for the PNMK M/92 methinks!

They should have both 0 carry, or be in own formations with a different unit class, more likely. Do they actually carry any dismounts when being 'SP ATG' in any case? Are these AFV actually used as replacements for 106 RCL Jeeps in some Danish units, or used in some other way?

The CV9035 is used (for now only in 1st Cmp- 1st Bat- Royal Life Guard; deployed to Helmand) as a replacement for the M113 as an APC. That is like an IFV. It can only carry 7 men and for that reason the squads of that Cmp has been changed to only 6 men.

Have you seen my other quibbles?
