  Infantry fighting vehicle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IFVs are similar to armoured personnel carriers (APCs), designed to transport five to ten infantrymen and their equipment.
IFVs are usually tracked, but some wheeled vehicles fall into this category, too.
IFVs are much less heavily armed and armoured than Main Battle Tanks (MBTs), but they sometimes carry heavy missiles, such as the NATO 'TOW' missile and USSR 'Spigot' which offer a significant threat to tanks.

The IFV is pretty much a concept that invents itself.
Many Western IFVs lack a sufficient assortment of different weapon types to effectively do this, which is why IFVs are sometimes dismissed as being no more effective in practice than machine gun armed APCs.
Many new IFVs and upgrades are proposing single barreled 30x173mm weapons such as the Alliant Technical Systems Bushmaster II or Mauser MK 30.

 Chinese Defence Today :: Type 86 Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Experience from the Middle East conflicts in the 1980s and the 1991 Gulf War has showed that the BMP-1, a 1960s-era Soviet Union design originally to be used in the nuclear war, is not suitable for modern land warfare.
Despite this, as the PLA's first generation IFV the Type 86 has played an important role in the PLA in developing doctrines for the armour troops and obtaining experience of using armoured combat vehicles to support main battle tanks in the joint operations.
The basic variant Type 86 IFV has a 73 mm low-pressure smoothbore anti-tank gun, firing two types of rounds including rocket-assisted, fin-stabilised HEAT (High-Explosive Anti-Tank) rounds and fin-stabilised HE anti-personnel rounds.

 CannisRules: Balance of Power & Beyond Revenge | C-GEN
However, in the unmodified game, an elite IFV with an infantry unit inside does not use a more powerful weapon than when it was a rookie.
For example, a Sniper IFV becomes elite very easily, and while it becomes faster and has better armor, its weapon does not improve (although it does receive a general firepower and rate-of-fire boost, but this is an improvement attached to the IFV unit and not to the weapon itself).
Still using the Sniper example, any Sniper in a rookie IFV should be better than a rookie Sniper on foot; an elite Sniper on foot should be better than any Sniper in a rookie IFV; and any Sniper in an elite IFV should have the best weapon of all.
