Default Re: Finnish OOB 5.5

Finnish national broadcasting corporation has a small article "In pictures - Legendary FDF equipment at the end of the road" listing equipment that's to be upgraded or removed from service and replaced.

Probable paths:
APILAS => NLAW
Pasi XA-180 / -185 => Patria AMV
23 ItK 61 "Sergei" (23mm AAG) => MANPADs
Pasi Crotale => More Unimogs?
66 KES 88 Orak (LAW M72A5) => ?
7.62 RK 62 (Assault Rifle) => ?
BTR-50 / -60 => ? (Probably just scrapped, no advantage over AMVs)

Then there's radios, cooking equipment, tents etc. with no simulational value.
