Just Challenger 2 in wikipeidia, but I remember reading it in a news article a year or two (or is it more) back. I thought exactly the same thing, where the hell did they get a ATGM from?

That's my guess -- it was captured. I've never seen a Milan in the flesh, but I've heard they're easy to use. The US Marines actually tested them in the early 1980s, thinking of getting Milans to supplement the Dragon.

As an aside, how did you ever find the time to make your website and stat all of those vehicles, guns and everything else. I'm really quite amazed.

Well, it's a combination of being 100% disabled and having a lot of time on my hands and a couple of spreadsheets someone made for me based on Fire, Fusion and Steel. But some of those stats are updates of updates of stuff I first came up with way back in college a few months after T2K was first published, or when I was in the Army shortly thereafter. It also serves as therapy of sorts.
