Unit 010: M24
Quote:
Unit 178: M24 Pillbox
Unit 009 could probably have its end date set to 12/65. The first M41s arrived in March 1965 and did not immediately replace the M24s.
Unit 010's start date should then be changed to 1/66 and should be given an X3 radio code. The tanks that remained were deployed either in largely static roles (see the following paragraph about M24 pillboxes) or were part of a 12-tank VNAF unit, loosely affiliated with the VNAF base security forces, but directly attached to the VNAF Headquarters under Nguyen Cao Ky and described in multiple sources as effectively an anti-coup force

Slightly seperate point using this as an example & X3 radio code.
If some one wants to set up a scenerio depicting the 12 tank unit tis easy enough to purchase the units even if not available. Start dates perhaps better to reflect availability ignoring odd rare formations or at least a note saying something & common start date.
