Units 93 and 177: 152mm D1
Wrong picture, current one is that of a ML-20, it should be changed to n. 11566.Final availability date should also be restricted to 12/1991.

A lot of infantry divisions were disbanded after the Gulf War
“The number of regular army divisions was cut from seven armored/mechanised and 20 infantry divisions to two or three armor divisions, three mechanised divisions and 11 infantry divisions.” http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita.../iraq/army.htm
The WW2 soviet vintage artillery pieces were likely flushed out of the system at that point. I haven’t found pictures of them in serviceable state in 2003.

Unit 608: M1A1 Abrams
It looks like the initial availability date should be anticipated further:

“Currently, the first four American tanks are at Besmaya Range Complex, with another 18 to be delivered within the next month. The 22 tanks will be used to train 11 Iraqi tank crews in each of thirteen future 45-day rotations. Iraq has purchased 140 M1A1Abrams tanks, scheduled for delivery in August 2010.”

OK Marcello but it's time to take a little break from this and wait for the patch to come out. I do not have time to change, adjust and test OOB's and picklists any longer.
