You'll note I've been tracking this since May/June.

This will be a 40 for 40 swap in 3-way deal.

Also, the pictures in ref. 2 clearly show the Milan ATGW launchers have been removed from the now Greek Marder's.

Also, more on bottom on the Greek BMP-1A1 with a picture of one that looks more like an American made Browning .50 Cal MG mounted on it.

See the German Marder pictured in ref. 1 w/Milan installed.

Pat
The Marders were not shipped with the weapons on them. Those will be added later...
