Some further corrections:
unit 077 Pzh2000 available from 1/2008, 70 units to be deliverd within 2009;
unit 019 M60A1(ERA) 10 vehicles leased from USMC and used only in Somalia in 1993/94, I suggest deletion from oob and in case of some Somalia scenario design to put them as "allied" units;
unit 021 Leopard 1A2 in service till 4/2003 in decreasing numbers from early 90s;
units 145/145/151 MLRS available from 1/88, 22 launchers;
unit 163 320mmm (naval) support available till 12/55 in 2 batteries of ten-per-BB;
I add quantities in case you need them for cost calculation.
Some work could be done on other naval calibers, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.

While your digging into Italy see what you can find out about the type of "Hovercraft" that's being used by the Italian Armed Forces

Do we have a hovercraft? [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img]
Ok, I'll look for it

[DRG]

Well.... the OOB says there is but I'm not sure who put it there and since it's only named " Hovercraft" I'm a bit suspicious.

The Italian Navy website (www.marina.difesa.it) doesn't say a word about it. Not even among future constructions. They sure would if we had some.

I tend to agree with you but I'm somewhat reluctant to remove it based on not being able to find info. IDK when it was added or why. If anyone else can shed some light on this I would appreciate it

I correct myself:
the PzH 2000 deliveries will start in April 2007, and will be completed in 2008!
