C1. SWEDEN/CHANGE/STRV-121/UNITS 357 & 358/End Date to DEC 2010/ Refs per A3 above.//
The STRV-121 had for several years faced inactivation due economic strains in the country after the STRV-122A became operational. I have been unable to find any information that any have been sold off at this time though, due to the current time crunch I’m under to get this out, I haven’t spent any time to dig hard on that issue. They are however without a doubt out of service and I feel pending better information and as per Ref 1 of A3 above feel comfortable with this information.

The problem here Pat is unit 358 is not a Strv 121

That would be correct...sorry. It should have read...
C1. SWEDEN/CHANGE/STRV-121/UNITS 357 & 359/End Date to DEC 2010/ Refs per A3 above.//

Don,
Concerning the MBT PP ITEM A1. Forgot to input a UNIT number for you to use/modify. Was thinking you could use UNIT 637 modify it to maybe save a slot. It's listed as an Obsolete Tank, however I can't remember if those type units served a purpose or not? Armor would have to be brought up to the levels of UNITS 318 & 649. I'll present it below to cut and paste it later when I transfer this info to the MBT Thread later if you use it.
A1. USA/ADD/JAN 2012/M1A2 SEP V2/USE/MODIFY UNIT #637 with CROWS II .50 CAL/TI/GSR 50-70.//

Also the refs indicated that all other current SEP tanks would be designated as the M1A2 SEP V1. This will make it easier to identify any future upgrades to these tanks without taking them to the M1A2 SEP V2 standard. I can only find 2 other SEP tanks that are in game use currently as of JAN 2012. So...
C2. USA/CHANGE/M1A2 SEP/UNITS 318 & 649/Change to M1A2 SEP V1//Per Refs provided for A1. above. More concerned with active service at the time the SEP V2 got fielded then you having to add two more of the SAME tanks in the OOB for a needed name change.

First I know I didn't give you much lead time this year and from what I've seen and predicted earlier last year came to pass in that both Andy and you would be busy with some of the more technical aspects of the game. So with that in mind, first I want to address the TI/GSR issue because I AM CONFIDENT that one or two people out there are wondering what might my reaction be for the AH-64E and M1A2 SEP V2, well none really, when submitting equipment I'm the "defence lawyer" for it I've dug up the evidence the best I can and "interviewed" people (THOSE DARN....(Enough dots.) FRENCH 105mm howitzers come to mind right about now.) also in some cases. But I also understand their are mitigating circumstances (Playability etc.) involved and secondly their are other aspects of a piece of equipment that can be increased as well. So to the AH-64E and M1A2 SEP V2 I'm happy with the result overall. They served my stated purpose in the inputs to set the "benchmark" for the equipment I'm going to submit for the 2013/2014 campaign regarding TOW ITAS and SNIPER, LITENING and other similar targeting pods for both jets and planes to a lesser degree.
TO ANDY, DON, SUHIIR and anyone else you all did a fine job last/this year and I thank you all.
However I know Don was scrambling at the end so though I'm the one that normally gets caught in these issues...Don would you like me to post my review of the items I found from what I submitted here or hold off until I submit my inputs for next year? They a are few and mostly date and other minor issues. Look at the bright side no smileys in the text!?!

Regards,
Pat
