26 47mm AT-Gun - maybe it's better to name it Cpt 47mm AT-Gun?

28,460,469 6.5mm Fiat MMGs - a photo is hard to say what MG. An Italian 2391 might be used instead.
I've found out - the photo 16206 is apparently Hotchkiss LMG on a tripod https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T7SvmuEkh...1600/greek.JPG . Nice photo of Greek MG, but we haven't such unit, and Fiat was quite different, without a stock and pistol grip. Maybe a generic photo 2391 would be better?

102, 103 P.Z.L. P-24F,G - maybe it's worth to create earlier entries (1/38 to some 12/39), so that a beautiful icon 2968 won't be wasted?.. According to a drawing http://alternathistory.com/files/res...08-640x905.JPG, until 1940 they were silver.

Surprisingly, there exist no good photos of undamaged camouflaged P-24 (current one is silver) - I'm attaching the best one found, that could go to camouflaged entries.

107 Blenheim Mk.IV - standard fixed armament was only 1 MG, now it has 3 (and it isn't even clear, if it had any https://www.haf.gr/en/history/histor...lenheim-mk-iv/) Possibly there's no reason, why it ends at 12/40 instead of 3 or 4/41 (until a fall of Greece).

122 BR Blenheim IV - the unit has been changed from Blenheim I to IV, but a photo remained I - should be 30139.

110 BR Gladiator - a photo is Belgian, it should be British 12552 or 3651 instead.

Gladiators were used also by the Greek AF since 12/40 (not counting two bought around 1937) https://www.haf.gr/en/history/histor...ladiator-mk-i/

This time that's all.
