Is there sufficient info for each country to have it's own section?-- Diaa abdelmoneim ( talk) 18:09, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
First of all, the vehicle does not have amphibious ability. The ability is not mentioned at in any of the references. So that should be mentioned as a weakness. In the comparison table, if we're going to mention the Fahd 280-30 IFV only, then we should remove the French VAB, as it has no real IFV version, as well as the Stryker ICV, since it's an APC, not an IFV. We should mention the Saudi Al-Fahd instead, since it is an IFV (see Paul Mulcahy pages). It must be pointed out that the Fahd is less capable at maneuvering obstacles because it has only four wheels, ie: the LAV-25 can cross a trench 2.5 m long, the Fahd can only cross a trench 0.8 m long. We should also point out that the Fahd lacks very advanced computer systems such as those on the BTR-90, the Stryker, and probably the Fuchs as well. My point is, if we're going to mention advantages, we should also mention drawbacks. In the end, I really don't agree with making comparisions with other vehicles. Well?

I think the article's name should be "Fahd armored personnel carrier" or "Fahd (armored personnel carrier)"; as per Wikipedia naming conventions. Abdallah ( talk) 12:58, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
I noticed that Kuwaiti Fahds have huge devises over their roofs. are these air conditioning systems, or maybe for NBC protection? Any ideas? One last pharaoh ( talk) 21:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Why would Paul Mulcahy not constitute a reliable source? Sherif9282 ( talk) 05:12, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
I think you're mistaken Dana Boomer. Mulcahy tells his readers that "nothing in his pages is for sale", and tells them not to ask him where they can be purchased from by saying Do not email me and ask me where you can get them! So basically he isn't denying his readers his sources of information. Sherif9282 ( talk) 16:18, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
