This template can be used to quickly insert a link to the corresponding article of a vehicle using their code. The displayed link uses a shortened name of the vehicle. Example: {{Specs-Link|f-86f-40_japan}}

 * '''"arg2"''' is optional. It allows the overriding of the text inserted by the template, while retaining the correct link to the vehicle's article. Overriding should only be used in cases where it explicitly disambiguates the link. Example:
-** <code><nowiki>ki_84_ko</nowiki></code> displays as {{Specs-Link|ki_84_ko}}, while <code><nowiki>ki_84_ko_china</nowiki></code> also displays as {{Specs-Link|ki_84_ko_china}}. This can be confusing, so it would be acceptable to override <code><nowiki>ki_84_ko_china</nowiki></code> to display as {{Specs-Link|ki_84_ko_china|␗Ki-84 ko}}.
+** <code><nowiki>fw-190a-5</nowiki></code> displays as {{Specs-Link|fw-190a-5}}, while <code><nowiki>fw-190a-5_cannons</nowiki></code> also displays as {{Specs-Link|fw-190a-5_cannons}}. This can be confusing, so it would be acceptable to override <code><nowiki>fw-190a-5</nowiki></code> to display as {{Specs-Link|fw-190a-5|Fw 190 A-5/U12}}.
 ** "arg2" also accepts 2 predefined values that set the form of the automatically inserted name.
 *** "short" - Inserts the name provided by <code><nowiki>{{Specs|pseudonym}}</nowiki></code> of the given vehicle. This is the same as the default behaviour (i.e. omitting "arg2" altogether).
