Spall liners in British vehicles Data Dump

So since missing spall liners can be reported, I created this thread to collect data and sources on their application in british vehicles. Feel free to add stuff

While not great, they do nudge me into thinking spall liners exist for the CVRT fleet even more

A number of light alloys were used to make this vehicle. The FV102 has an aluminum armor hull with spaced high-hardness steel armor. Interior is lined with a spall liner

So striker potentially has 1 and same for other CVRTs. Cant really find anything hard beyond a guy talking about removing the liner from his CVRT and being told its a spall liner by somebody else.

Theres also a site called scorpion tank spares that has a part listed as something like “boss, mounting, spall” though could just mean something else I guess.

If anyone can deny a spall lining for CVRT and save my search that would also be fine, but I am sure theres a liner on them, or is it just a “sound dampening system” xD
