Default Re: spob20 Yugoslavia

A couple of suggestions:

05 M.28 - I suggest name Renault M.28, for it wasn't a standalone designation, but model 1928.

21 65mm Mtn Gun - picture is Russian 76mm M.13 (from Finnish OOB). Maybe it should be French 65mm mle 06 (picture 468)? Same for unit 320.

22 M7 105mm HMC - I don't insist to change the name, but out of interest, they were known as Serman (Sherman) self-propelled gun in Yugoslavian Army. Maybe M7 Sherman?..

23 M8 HMC - as above, they were known as Stuart self-propelled gun.

63 Yak-9 - I don't know which version it is supposed to be, but an armament should be only 1 x 20mm gun (not 23mm) and 1 x 12.7 if it was most numerous Soviet Yak-9M, or 1 x 20mm and 2 x 12.7, if it's late-war high performance Yak-9U (less likely).

72 T-34/76 - in fact, T-34/76 were several captured ex-German machines (the soviet Union equipped Yugoslavian 2nd Tank Brigade with new T-34/85), so maybe class 159 Captured tank is better, so they won't be mixed.

73 M3A1 Stuart - photo is M3A3. I'll attach a Yugo one.

159 Hurricane I - this 1939 Hurricane has late-war photo 2080 (from Yugo RAF squadron), with prominent stars, more appropriate for unit 268

187 Alpine AT Rifle
- photo is PTRD, not Solothurn

268 Hurricane Mk.IV - it could be doubled with 2x250 lbs bombs

271 Caproni Ca.310 - has Norwegian markings. A photo is eg. here http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9b809839.jpg

273 Breguet XIX - a photo of Yugoslavian one

Now it's only AOP plane - it's worth to be doubled as a fighter-bomber (eg. copied #579 from Polish oob, with some MG - say #163 7.7mm MG, and 4x100 kg bombs

289,290 Partisan AT, 291,590 Cetnik AT - photos might be replaced with some Molotovs...

302 TK-3 - on a photo are in fact TKS, and most probably German ones from a propaganda movie Heimkehr, pretending to be Polish, not Ustase ones.
There are photos of real Croatian TK-3 http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=173309

303 PzKw I B - photo is actually Pz IA (http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtop...97186&start=15), as well as other photos of Croatian Pz I on this forum, so maybe unit's should be changed

349 MGCA M.37 Breda - photo is some other LMG (I pointed it out in Italian OOB).

451 CV-33/35 LF - maybe a category should be changed from Captured tank to Flame tank, since other ordinary captured tanks appear in #114 Flame Tank formation.

459 White-Laffly AM - Zastava 128 mentioned about White AM in this subject http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=49959 , but it must be old White AM (#407 from French OOB), not relatively new Laffly 80.
