==== Scout car ==== {{Main|Scout car}} A ''scout car'' is a military armoured [[reconnaissance vehicle]], capable of off-road mobility and often carrying mounted weapons such as [[machine gun]]s for offensive capabilities and crew protection. They often only carry an operational crew aboard, which differentiates them from wheeled armoured personnel carriers (APCs) and [[infantry mobility vehicle]]s (IMVs), but early scout cars, such as the open-topped US [[M3 scout car]] could carry a crew of seven. The term is often used synonymously with the more general term armoured car, which also includes armoured civilian vehicles. They are also differentiated by being designed and built for purpose, as opposed to improvised "[[Technical (vehicle)|technicals]]" which might serve in the same role. <gallery mode="packed"> File:Verkhnyaya Pyshma Tank Museum 2011 140.jpg|[[BA-64]] at the [[UMMC Museum of Military and Automotive Equipment|UMMC Museum]] File:BRDM-2 (1964) owned by James Stewart pic1.JPG|Soviet [[BRDM-2]] amphibious scout car. </gallery> {{clear}}
