I am starting to doubt the reports of such kill numbers of tanks. I read where the Iraqis are usuing modified SUVs and Toyota trucks with mounted ordinance--like the so called "technicals" in Somalia. Those might account for the kill count mistaken for tanks. I have not heard of Iraq armor moving out to engage in such numbers yet.

Destro, you sound like you're saying that Apache gunners can't tell the difference between a Toyota pickup truck and an MBT.

Apache gunners file news stories? I can easily see a kill agianst a hostile vehicle of all types (APC? supply trucks? etc.) being mistranslated by a journalist as a tank kill. Makes me think that if this number was in a news story--I have never read it and I read a lot then the journalist got what was killed wrong - but notthe numbers. Please link the article on the number of tank kills claimed so I can know from what source you are typing about. Thanks.
