- Formation 195 (Truck Inf Pl) has no trucks assigned
- Units 379&380 (AB-14 Temsah - apparently a locally-designed BTR-T type heavy IFV on an MBT chassis) hast no HE ammo for its 20mm autocannon
- I was very surprised to find an A-10A Thunderbolt in this OOB (Unit 153) - might be intentional as I remember some talk about basing A-10s in Jordan during OIF- and then they might have been left there as a 'gift'? AFAIK this never happened.
- finally, if you're at it - as in many OOBs, there is no off-map artillery available with cluster ammo

OK, I'll look into those

OK........ and do you know for certain that Jordan actually uses cluster ammo ? If yes, a source would be helpful

No, unfortunately I don't but I concluded this as they do have on-map M-109A2s (Unit 305) in the current OOB which do use cluster ammo. It's because I thought an M-109 should be available both on-map and off-map;
My fault - I noticed now that off-map guns typically are towed guns, and Jordan's towed guns are all old scrap (M-114 155m - never seen with CM in the game)... so, just leave it as is and don't waste your time in research on this.

O/T: 46 countries recently signed a ban on cluster ammo during a summit in Oslo - that is, they say they will not use them (but maybe still keep the existing stocks? politicians...) - I suggest we'd simply ingnore this and NOT start deleting all CM ammo from

I have no intention of deleting CM from the game nor add it to nations without hard data.
