I haven't seen what the capability requirement is for the IFV for dismounts. That being said the KF41 version of the Lynx being trialed in phase 3 has seating for 8 dismounts and 3 crew vs 6 and 3 for the smaller KF31. Either way it will mean a change in org.

I'm still seeing pics of 70 man Rifle Companies, fitted for but not with 3 rifle platoons. Fitted for, but not with 4 Rifle Companies etc...

We were looking at that pic, or another one in the same series and were wondering who lent the sniper a helmet and who showed him how to put it on? :p

Different times to the old days.
Given its a sniper he probably stole it not having a clue what it was but decided he needed it anyway. I am guessing the Bn Padre would have been who got him to wear it correctly after watching him walk around with it on backwards and taking pity on him.
