Default Belgium - pictures only

OOB 27 Belgium:

01 FT-17M - there could be used a picture with MG, eg. French 27556. Same for 200.

06 Stuart I - common problem with the British oob (pic 380 is Stuart V)

09 Sherman V - as above (picture is Sherman I). Same for 251 Sherman V

16 1.5 Ton Truck - picture of 6x6 Dodge is too modern for a pre-war truck, could be eg. 27527 1.5t Citroen

24 40mm Bofors AA - common problem with the British oob (old generic picture). Same for 110.

26,27 3in Mortars - picture is Soviet 82mm, could be 601 or 21150

40 75mm Krupps FG,
57 75mm Battery - I'm attaching pictures of Belgian 75mm guns.
Range of TR M1905 was 10 km, of GP guns was 11 km (modification of Krupp FK 16) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_de_75_mle_GP_III
Same for units 270,272,274 (which could be given older M1905 picture)

49 Hurricane Mk.I - I'm attaching a Belgian 1939 Hurricane. Same for 344.

53 M15-A1 - common problem with US OOB (picture is M16)

81 47mm AT-Gun - correct picture for Belgian 47mm FRC is 28019 (now it's Soviet 45mm).
BTW, the weapon's name should be changed to FRC L/33 - it was their own gun http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/47_mm_M..._anti-tank_gun . Data look probable - it doesn't seem an especially potent design, although a penetration 6, like Breda in Italian OOB, might be better.
Since it is model 1931, it was probably introduced earlier, than 1/39, but I have no precise info.

94 Austin 30cwt - picture is 6x6 Dodge, better is 30222 (used as 30cwt in Polish OOB)

193,197 Renard R31 - I'm attaching a photo (now it's Fairey Fox)

219 Ford 1ton Truck - picture is 6x6 Dodge, better for this era and class is eg. 20512 (it might be GAZ, which had Ford origin)

240 AOP Field Car - instead of armoured truck, more appropriate pic for an old field car seems 27596 or 19686

(66 Rolls Royce A/C, 90 Laffly 80 AM - I didn't mean to put substantial changes, so you may ignore them, but Belgium didn't use any armoured cars before the war apart from WWI Minerva AM used until early 30s and Berliet VUDB, used in 1930-33, then given to Gendarmerie - see http://mailer.fsu.edu/~akirk/tanks/bel/Belgium.htm and a Russian page for Berliet http://www.aviarmor.net/tww2/armored...rliet_vudb.htm
Reportedly at least one Berliet fought in the campaign. Armament was 2 LMGs
If we'd like to create Minerva, Polish 563 Peugot M1918 would be a very good pattern, with 8mm Hotchkiss)

Edit: I've noticed, that one Hurricane lbm needs cropping.
