[edit] Deerhound / Staghound

I think the current name of the article - T17 Staghound - is a bit misleading. There was no T17 Staghound. There was T17 Deerhound and T17E1 Staghound. Perhaps it will be better to return to the T17 Armored Car ? Or to use something like T17 Deerhound / Staghound ? Or should the article be splitted considering that the two were different - albeit similar - vehicles ? Bukvoed 21:51, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. This way seems ambigious now. Oberiko 23:24, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

This is now completely obscure, at least from a British point of view. I am very familiar with the Staghound in British service but I would have no idea it was called the T17E1 (by whom? The British army doesn't use numbers and it did not serve in US forces).

Isn't the Deerhound a different vehicle?Cyclopaedic (talk) 20:13, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi. Staghound was also used by Polish Army in Italy 1944/1945 . Best regards Marcin.
