Now this is an interesting subject.... What is the difference between:
Class 2 - Armored Fighting Vehicle
Class 3 - Armored Utility Vehicle
To me, it may often come down to the vehicle utilisation....
What I have tried to do in Rev A, is to split the Bison and the M113 into both categories, depending on configuration.
I looked at the Coyote vehicles, and as the weapon doesn't change (ie still has a big gun that can destroy things) I think it should remain in the fighting vehicle class.
Also, the RG-31 is a variant of the South African RG-31 Nyala, so it should keep the variant flag (ie has lots of Canadian modifications).
I will endeavour to also look at the other countries Class 2 and Class 3 entries, to see if there are other occurrences where utility use has been listed under fighting.

Some comments for discussion:
• The MOWAG and Piranha V are in the Armored Utility Vehicle Category (3), not Armored Fighting Vehicle (2). So, maybe take a look at this with respect to the Bison.
• Also, maybe we could “clean up” some of these same vehicle families. I don’t think the proper initial enumeration was done and now they’re getting kind of messy (multiple countries, not the same structure, etc.). I care less that they’re multiple countries and more that if essentially the same vehicle is represented in multiple countries, at least we’re using the same Category. The M113A2 is in Category 2, so I think that one’s probably okay. But, as a counterpoint, look at AUS fitter vehicles.
• Should the RG-31 be a variant off the SA one?
• I would put the RWS acronym after the words. I know this was copied from Wikipedia like that, but Wikipedia is wrong, too (it did it this way because of the link).

I am doing a review of the MCL, and have found the following Canadian land vehicles that are listed in the MCL that should be listed in the Enumerations list.
