mr_clark: I assume you speak german, so get the book I mentioned above, and if you're mostly into tanks, there's another one by Mr. Spielberger on NVA's tanks with even more details, I havent seen it though.

Found an interesting link with info on the NVA structure and equipment:
http://www.axishistory.com/index.php?id=5528

This part lists the different divisions and the basic AFV's:
http://www.axishistory.com/index.php?id=5529

Check out the 6th MSD, its got T34's and JSII's as late as 1987. Anyone has more on this?

You're right. The other division OB's are of 1987 and I jumped the gun assuming they all were.

Hmm I'll to get a look at it. Though I personally don't really like Motorbuch, they're quite biased sometimes. (IV'e got a horrible book on Green Berets from 'em...)

anyone know why DDR BTR-60/70 aren't given any AP ammo for their 14.7mm guns? without it you can't damage even lightly armoured APCs.

That has been corrected ( as well as the SPW-40P2 )in the V3 OOBs for East Germany and a few others as well

About the book again: Believe me, this one is something different... not that kind of Tom Clancy-Style crap. And it was quite cheap, too.
