Top speed

[edit]

125 km/h per hour is listed as the top speed, this is certainly not true for all variants of the C303. Could someone clarify this? Jonathan Karlsson 10:18, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

When I did my servide they had a sticker in them sying that you weren't allowed to drive them faster than 80 km/h. During the end of my service I also saw that some had new stickers saying you shouldn't drive faster than 60 km/h. I have a recollecton that the speedometer is only rated to 120 km/h. You can drive it faster than that so 125 km/h does not sound unreasonable. // Liftarn

TGB12

[edit]

The fourth version of the TGB family is missing in the list. This is a amphibian of which 5 were made. 2 were scraped during testing, 2 are presently at "Arsenalen" in Strängnäs, Sweden, and the last is mine, and are in Røyken, Norway. TB12 is a 6x6 with an water jet and some other minor changes in the construction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.212.200.165 (talk) 07:46, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

When did it enter Malaysian Army service?

[edit]

The final sentence in the lede states "A total of 8,718 vehicles of the C3 series were made. Roughly 75% of these went into military service, with the remaining sold to civilian contracts. It was used by the Malaysian Army c. 1970-1990". However, the C303 is also stated as having gone into production in 1974, so it cannot have entered use with the Malaysian Army in 1970. I would welcome either more specific information as to when they adopted it, or a way to phrase this to avoid the apparent contradiction. Bricology (talk) 07:46, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
