Well to start the Greek OOB has the current with armored cab as UNITS 101/105.

I've used WAFF before in researching the Turkish MBT issue a few years back which was an absolute mess of which nearly all of it was pre Andy and Don. So the below is from them having translated it from a Greek source.

Follow the variant links from ref 1 first newest type modifications. The Greeks seem like they're going for something more along the Slovak latest mod. but I could be wrong here.

I didn't have time to verify the following besides checking to see if this equip. was in the OOB. But a couple of interesting points came up...
1) Regardless of user country, a roof mounted, by the hatch 7.62mm MG
was standard equipment.

2) Also regardless of the chassis the weapons system is mounted on, they where designed to have ONE complete onboard reload, which after a launch, the launcher can be reloaded within 2 minutes. Pictures from Ref. 1 clearly show this reload capability.

I don't know if the "reload" is modeled currently in the game or if it can be modeled if it's not?

I do know I'm tired so good night.

Regards,
Pat
