Class 28 – Heavy Truck
I don’t know how standardised you want to be here, but IIRC I’ve heard Don mention something about not individualising trucks, so here goes:-
Austria 145 and Sweden 542 are the only 2 armoured Class 28s. They are not the only Class 28s in either oob.
Sweden 553 is the only armed heavy truck.
Bulgaria is the only oob without a heavy truck.
Sweden 555 has Size 3; USMC 60, Yugoslavia 526, Algeria 599, Bosnia 526, Chad 598, Saudi Arabia 256, Lebanon 598, UN 50 & 51 and Nicaragua 300 have Size 5, all others have Size 4. There’s a case for the UN vehicles because they are buses rather than trucks, but I’d be tempted to make them a different class (maybe 252, otherwise unused in UN) and a new formation.
Austria 64, S.Africa 266, Switzerland 601, 602 & 615, Angola 289 & 290, Cambodia 224 and UN 302 all have Crew 3; Yugoslavia 525 has Crew 4. All others have Crew 2.
Greece 701, Yugoslavia 526 and Bosnia 526 are Move Class 3, all others either ‘Default’ or 2.
Australia 257, Canada 184, Austria 64, Switzerland 614 & 616, Angola 289, Cambodia 224 and Malaysia 385 have Survivability 1; UN 50 & 51 have Survivability 2. All others have 0. Comments about the UN units as above.
Lift Capacities vary. 132 is the standard, but I certainly don’t have a problem with variations (That’s why I haven’t mentioned differences in speed). However, Croatia 526 & Switzerland 616 have Lift Capacity of 232 & 244 respectively. You may want to consider knocking them back to 132 & 144?
Weights also vary. Again, not a problem to me, because there’s nothing outstandingly OTT. However, Italy 230, Ethiopia 308 and Somalia 548 have Weight 9, and IIRC there’s a convention about all vehicles being minimum 10.
Class 27 – Medium Truck
Again, how much standardisation? I’ve left the units just called ‘Truck’ or ‘Medium Truck’ alone, but where there is more than 1 unit with a specific name I’ve gone for it. So for example:-
Uruguay 551 & Paraguay 571 are both a ‘Type 73’. The first has Size 3, the second 4.
GaZ-66 – Yugoslavia 523 is Size 4, others Size 3. It is also Weight 12, others 10.
Steyr – Uganda 40 has Speed 15, others 18. It also has Lift Capacity 117, others at least 118.
Greece 700 has Weight 10, others 12.
Bedford – Tanzania 40 has Crew 4, others 2. It also has Speed 15 (others 18) and Lift Capacity 115 (others 118).
Sweden 550 is a 30-cwt – maybe a bit small for this class?
