I think it is an English speaker mistake trying to translate "Lynx" into Dutch language and ending up with "Luchs" German language.

Correct terminology in Netherlands was M113 C&V as far as I know. Different sources seem to vary that around a bit.

Anyhow, the Dutch M113 C&R entry is incorrect, see my earlier posting.
The Luchs is a German 8x8 amphibious reconnaissance armoured fighting vehicle.

Default 'Sources'

"Correct terminology in Netherlands was M113 C&V as far as I know. Different sources seem to vary that around a bit."

Sources, what 'sources' would those be? Wikipedia?

You need to start getting out of the right side of the bed.

No.

Amersfoort.

Specifically "M113 C en V".

Doug,

Indeed, that's what I said in post #23.

According to the technical manual the full nomenclature was
  • "Carrier, Commando en Verkenning M113A1 C&V. m/25 mm Boordwapen"
    which translates to
  • "Carrier, Command and Reconnaissance M113A1 C&R. w/25 mm mounted weapon"
HTH,
Hanno
