I'm not sure what "AVF 430 ambulance" refers to. The book is about a British tank regiment in Iraq in 2003. My first thought was that it meant the FV430 Mk3 Bulldog, but that didn't enter service until some years later.
It also uses the acronym "ATW" for "anti-tank weapon", an acronym neither I, nor anyone else I've asked, has ever come across before. The more usual acronyms are ATGW (anti-tank guided weapon) or ATGM (anti-tank guided missile).
Empire of Ivory by Naomi Novik has the remarkable typo "and I hope you will permit me to suggest, Wilberforcewritten had, that any Oriental touch"
Victory of Eagles by Naomi Novik (these are also present in my paperback copy):
I've seen others, but those were the ones that I could immediately remember well enough to find easily.
