There is no way weapon changes for specific units can't be "instantaneous".
Each unit is assigned a "Unit Class", given weapons, and start/end dates (X1 and X2) when it's created. When date X1 comes up that unit, with those weapons becomes available, and on date X2 it ceases to exist.
If there happen to be multiple units, with different weapons, and the exact same "unit Class" and who's start/end date overlap X1 or X2 then you have a choice as to which weapons to use.

You seem to be under the impression weapons are given employment dates and units select the weapons they use. Sorry, it just doesn't work that way.
