Delta_Strife's Ship Units

[Vuldacon]

Still Alive! I was laying low until I had finished some huge projects (Poor Ares I swamped him) but I came out because of the events in the world.

...and the timing of the some of the World "Events" are no doubt intentional

 

[Nanuk]

TIL Russia invaded Ukraine to force Delta Strife to release a new unit pack. That's 4d chess, right there.

 

[Delta_Strife]

Anyone know of a good website or two the lays out military equipment operated by various nations in detail? Wikipedia is rather hit or miss when it comes to variants and such. Books would work as well for example aerofax did an excellent series on soviet aircraft and detailed exactly which models went to which country and when.

 

[Laurana Kanan]

Just off-hand @AnthonyBoscia or @Boris Gudenuf might be good individuals to ask.

You can look at the airplanes here:

Russian language. Google Translator does a good job.

I don't think it would do. It's more about the aerial warfare then what-equipment-went-to-whom-and-when.

Start with https://www.janes.com website: the Janes group through their various publications and databases provide the best overall open-source defense information that I know of. Their publications tend to get a little pricey, though: best find a good University/big city library that has them rather than try to access them yourself.

 

[Delta_Strife]

Ya Jane's is pricey just trying to figure out a few things involving the Warsaw pact countries. For example the BRDM-2 there are several versions of it and various missile systems. Its not clear to me which went were and when.

A little armored personnel carrier - https://arsenal-info.ru/b/book/3241573557/3?
БРДМ-2 - https://arsenal-info.ru/b/book/765643034/6?

 

[Lionic]

In case this is for another Russia-Ukrainian unit pack I think that most BRDM-2 based systems like Malyutka are retired by this time. The only exception would be BRDM-2 Konkurs launcher.

 

[Delta_Strife]

All very good sources so far. There will be another pack soonish I acquired a bunch of cold war stuff so was sorting into the correct nations and its hard to tell who gets what at times.

 

[Delta_Strife]

Ok had a look at Jane's Armor and Artillery that does the trick!

Specifically for the BMRD-2, look here:
