There's no point in listing tanks like "type 85-I, type 85-II, type 85-III..." if it's going to point to the same article anyway. I'd just use "Type 85/96". I'll clean up the Type 96 MBT article tonight. -- Adeptitus 05:19, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chinese Designation Confusion

Is there a talk page on use of thr official Chinese military designations or simply calling everything 'Type'? For example here the 'QBZ-95' is called th 'Type-95' and links to an aricle called 'QBZ-95'. Should this be standardised across Wikipedia? Semi-Lobster 11:36, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Infantry Armour?

Does the PLA even use body armour? A lot of the images of the PLA infantry (including those of the Special Forces) show them without body armour. I wonder if that is the case because that would be incredibly foolish on the PLA's part. (Psychoneko (talk) 15:45, 28 February 2008 (UTC))

Some units do use body armour.
