Next time I might proof read what Iv'e just typed before I post it, just to
make sure even I understand what I'm talking about.

The Question should read.... When infantry fire a GMS/P at an APC and
Frag
it, for resolving casualties amongst the occupants do I treat the GMS/P
as a size class 1 heavy weapon (because I can't find its size class in the
rules)and use the ruling on page 39 or do I treat the GMS/P as a small
arms support weapon, and class it like its an IAVR and use the ruling on page
37. Signed indecisive

Since P.40 "Guided Missile Fire" states that a GMS/P may not be fired
as a support weapon, and since GMS/P are classed as Heavy Weapons
with a base impact value of D12 (p.29), I would count it as a Class 1 weapon
for the purpose of checking casualties to vehicle occupants.
