On 18 October 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved from Python Minefield Breaching System to Python minefield breaching system. The result of the discussion was moved.

Trailer weight

given that the trailer is towed by a freaking tank in the picture and still looks quite large, and the fact that the weight of the explosives is stated as one and a half ton, how can it still weigh only 136 kilograms?

Python Minefield Breaching System → Python minefield breaching system – Not a proper name. Appears this way in a headline, but also appears lowercase in the article. Also called Python minefield clearing system, Python mine-clearing system in the cited sources. Dicklyon (talk) 19:42, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, lowercase the description of equipment type per precedents listed in User:Dicklyon/MIL precedents. It's a replacement for the Giant Viper, and would simply be called the Python if not for the need to distinguish it from biology (and computing) articles. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 21:20, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support lowercase as a description per BBC reference. Cinderella157 (talk) 05:14, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support—per all three posts above. Tony (talk) 11:07, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Yet another usual case for MOS:CAPS, MOS:MILCAPS, WP:NCCAPS, WP:LOWERCASE, WP:CONSISTENT. The "Python" part here is the consistently capitalized proper name (within the context of a military codename designation, not in reference to a snake of course), while the rest is description (and rather variable at that) which isn't consistently capitalized in the RS. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 23:15, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
