Why isn't this under LAVIII?

There's only like 300 of these vehicles and they wholly don't matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ancholm (talk • contribs) 12:18, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with history references

There seems to be an edit conflict regarding the history of this series of vehicles. Claiming a website (https://www.tanknutdave.com) is non-reliable seems a bit out of line here. Feel free to take a look at the site info:

https://tanknutdave.com/about-us-a-the-site/

The following link speaks directly to the link between the LAV II family and the Piranha models.

https://tanknutdave.com/the-wheeled-piranha-a-lav-family/

which states clearly that MOWAG link is incorrect. The published article from Frank Maas doesn't refer to this sub-family, and the reference from Military Today (http://www.military-today.com/apc/bison.htm) would suffer from the same notability issues.

I think we're starting to split hairs regarding this, and seeing as the majority of the components for this vehicle are North American (engine, suspension, powertrain, turret) it should be referred to as a GM Diesel build.
