T90 in Syrian Army

[FASTBOAT TOUGH]

It bugged me that I knew that Syria had over a thousand T-72 tanks and when I did my SIPRI search they weren't there.

Where were they?

Turns out, they were in SYRIA all along but not from Russia.

I would figure this out on Post, and just like our game, those people at SIRPI were smart enough to have a place called the "Soviet Union" as well.

So from SIRPI search criteria Soviet Union to Syria 1970-2018 (Yes I know it ended on Dec. 31, 1991)/Armored Vehicles.

These are the results:
(300) T-54 Tank (1967) 1967-1972 (300) Second-hand
(200) BRDM-2 Tank destroyer (1968) 1969-1972 (200) 9P133 version (with AT-3 missiles)
(1000) BRDM-2 Reconnaissance AV (1968)1969-1975 (1000)
(300) BTR-152 APC (1968) 1969-1971 (300) Second-hand
(300) T-55 Tank (1968) 1969-1972 (300)
(25) MTU-20 ABL (1969) 1970 (25)
(100) BRDM-1 Reconnaissance AV (1970) 1970-1971 (100) Second-hand
(150) BTR-60PB APC (1970) 1970-1971 (150)
(80) PT-76 Light tank (1971) 1972-1973 (80) Second-hand
(500) T-62 Tank (1972) 1972-1974 (500) Possibly incl from Czechoslovakian production line
(400) BTR-50 APC (1973) 1973-1975 (400) Possibly Second-hand
(500) BTR-60PB APC (1973) 1973-1975 (500)
(100) T-34-85 Tank 1973 1973-1974 (100) Second-hand
(400) T-54 Tank 1973 1973-1978 (400) Second-hand
(400) T-55 Tank 1973 1973-1978 (400) Possibly second-hand
(2300) BMP-1 IFV 1977 1977-1989 (2300) possibly from Czechoslovakian production line
(600) T-55 Tank (1978) 1979-1981 (600)
(1250) T-72 Tank (1978) 1979-1989 (1250)
(300) T-62 Tank 1982 1982-1984 (300) Second-hand
100 BMP-2 IFV (1987) 1987-1988 (100)

This covers all Armored Vehicles transactions, along with those from Post #2, from 1970 to 2018/Soviet Union & Russia/to Syria.

Hopefully this closes the loop here.
