    Default People driving "Tanks" through houses scheduled for demolition for fun.

    Rather annoying to see an APC FV432 refered to as a tank by the BBC and the owners of the business. Surely they would know the difference.

    Most people that watch the news are ignorant as to what different AFV's are
    We know the difference between MBT's, IFV's, APC's, SPG's, ARV's, CEV's Armored Cars, etc; but to the general populace, if it has armor and tracks, its a "tank".

    If they see a vehicle with tracks, they call them tanks.
