RE: VT fused Art vs Inf in APC's - 3rd Ed.
I would have to dive into the rules to give you a good answer. As an Infantryman I will tell you that I am unsure which would be worse when facing an air burst - being on the ground or inside an open top APC. On the ground if shrapnel misses you it will embed itself into the ground or something else. In an APC the shrapnel could ricochet this causing casualties; though, on the plus side, if the initial burst misses the APC could displace more quickly than folks on the ground. This might all be a moot point as many artillerymen prefer a mix of VT (airburst) and point detonation based on target description (mix of dismounts and tracked vehicles) and certain terrain (forests or wooded terrain).
