– Here "armoured personnel carrier" is generic, the type, while the first part is the proper name. Dicklyon (talk) 06:05, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support as usual, per WP:MILCAPS, MOS:CAPS, and WP:LOWERCASE styling guidelines and many precedents. For the first two, RMs resulting in titles of the form "ModelNumber descriptive phrase" with lowercasing of the descriptive part include Talk:T1 light tank (9 articles), Talk:M6 heavy tank (7 articles), Talk:A7 medium tank (4 articles), Talk:M1918 Ford 3-ton tank (1 article), Talk:M1 armored car (3 articles), Talk:M1126 infantry carrier vehicle (10 articles), Talk:M6 bomb service truck (1 article), Talk:M1918 Browning automatic rifle (1 article), Talk:M728 combat engineer vehicle (1 article), Talk:M3 scout car (1 article), Talk:M21 mortar carrier (1 article), Talk:M1117 armored security vehicle (1 article). As for the Crocodile, it seems conceptually similar to the Python (and the Harrier, the King, the Humber, etc.). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:48, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
