Fallout Re: APC Development and related topics.

Well it's official as of today, British MOD has awarded the
FRES SV portion of the program to General Dynamics. Theirs was the SV using the ASCOD-2 as the platform (The turret contract was already awarded w/the 40mm case mounted gun.) The rest of the FRES program could be in jeopardy to budget issues. Again see post #1. Article as reported from London Times:
