[FASTBOAT TOUGH]

Well I owe everyone an answer regarding Dons question concerning Uganda and the T-90S.
First to clarify I made an error concerning them having the T-72, they don't (T-55AM-2 and T-62), I confused Uganda with Sudan. As some might remember within the last 4 months or less in the Sudan OOB Thread there was a discussion related to whom had the T-72 during the Sudanese Civil War of which I at the time used SIPRI source data. So again I turned to them as so very few Western sources concern themselves about African arms deals.
I REALLY HATE TO HARP ON THIS SUBJECT BUT I HOPE YOU ALL REALISE THIS IS WHY I NEVER LIKE TO SINGLE/DOUBLE SOURCE ANY EQUIPMENT ISSUES. Are there exceptions yes when a quick response is needed but, I always follow up with more UNLESS otherwise requested.
In my mind I grade my sources i.e. SIPRI B+ why? Who are they? Where do they get their info from? Is their info consistent with my A sources to include Govt./or Military etc. over time? Do they provide industry real news items as their primary means of support with an equipment data (ED) base and how often do they report the news and update the ED?. And more. Bottom line I chose them carefully and don't pull them out of my "DONKEY" though some might think me one. It takes time and has it's costs as well.
SIPRI is a very well respected "Think Tank" and embedded in Africa and do vet their outside sources as best as anyone can.
So SIPRI says Uganda has 38/39 T-90S tanks. Along with Army-Guide and the related Army-Tech story already posted I believe they do have them. I took the time to randomly check some other transactions of equipment I submitted over the years and they are certainly "close enough for government work". Since I'm a fair and balanced guy see the refs below. And please read the intro, any legitimate site will tell where they got their data from and list their sources as well. That's why DEFPRO, Defense Industry Daily (DID) and Army-Tech I give an A+ to.
A B source.

Background
http://www.sipri.org/about

You can access database info on from here on armament transactions back to 1950 for all weapons or by type i.e. armor as above provided, arty, combat aircraft etc.

SIPRI is on the rise with me before I had to search by article query now the database side I hope will make my life easier in bk checking on equipment status after it's in the game such as the OPLOT date change for Thailand by other sources as posted.
