...to confirm this: upper view

After re-thinking, better name than "obr30 FH" would be "obr.10 FH" - it was basically obr.1910, only modernized in 1930.
366 122mm 31 FG - better name is "obr31 FG". An icon is too light gun (and has a shield) - best seems 2123 (picture

Winter icon seems an error.
Same for Polish LWP #158
367 122mm 31 Bty - same for the name
370 122mm M-30 FH - icon has too thin and long barrel for 122 mm howitzer, and doesn't resemble this piece at all. Best icon seems 2167 - it's also quite light, but has good proportions (picture

Same for Polish LWP #154, German #133, Czech #186, Yugo #56, Hungarian #185, Finnish #182
385 37mm obr 15 IG - there is no info on 37mm infantry guns in a Russian encyclopedia on Russian WW2 artillery. Possibly it is trench gun Rozenberg obr.15
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/37_mm_trench_gun_M1915, but according to Russian Wikipedia
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/37-%D0...BE%D0%B4%D0%B0 it was withdrawn as soon, as in 1919. According to article
https://web.archive.org/web/20070929....php?nid=18073 , unspecified 37mm guns were withdrawn from battalion artillery in 1931, as obsolete. Might be easily removed.
Same for #350
462 Jeep (AOP) - same remarks, as for #46 - delivered from mid-42, not counting Bantams.
466 ZiS Truck - same remarks, as for 45 (best icon is 3170/3172, with narrower body) (and without cargo, as personnel carrier)
517 T-26E - first were made and used in combat in 2/40, by the end of Winter War (now 4/40). Armour should be better - 15 to 40 mm plates were used (without standardization), so I suggest 4/4/3/ 4/4/3. Drawings show extra armour on rear as well.
There should be also added screened OT-133 (might be called OT-133E), also used at the same time, starting from Winter War. It also should have lower speed.
BTW: according to Baryatynski's book, all T-26 flame tanks were in fact designated in documents KhT-26, -130, -133 ("Chemical tank"), and they are called OT in post-war literature. Probably the same applies to OT-27, which in a monograph is called by the author: "OT-27/KhT-27". Russian spelling XT-26 is tempting, but might be confusing
568 Maxim(x4) AAMG - it was accepted already in 1931
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%97...BE%D0%B4%D0%B0 , although there's no information, when exactly they started to appear (now 1/37). There's no information about less typical 569 Maxim(x2), but I assume it was the same.
586 STZ-5- speed was only 21 km/h (now 10)
588 76.2mm BPK RG - a picture is actually 65mm prototype RPG. Photos are here:

Officially adapted in 8/32.
593 OT-27 - according to Russian book, produced from late 1932 (now 6/35) (it had 32-36 l of mixture, enough for 30 shots or 28 seconds). It also should have DT BMG.
595 OT-131"exp" - it had a flamethrower and 45mm gun instead of CMG (according to M. Kolomiets book)
