Please, please, please... if you're going to give me a list like this, it would be appreciated if you would download the spreadsheets from the website first. I just skimmed the list and about 3 4 of what you asked for is in the list already. A list like this will get filed away till I have time to go through it carefully. If you really want to see something that is not in one of the lists add, let me know “please add the following; x,y.z†and I will add them immediately. Alternately, you could e-mail me directly with a spreadsheet. That would be even better.
I should also mention that some items like the PT-91 that you mentioned are less likely to be in the game pre-release. The PT-91 is so close to the T-72 that we would likely just use the T-72, especially that there are very few PT-91s in the entire world and the specs would likely be the exact same as the base T-72 or one of it’s variants. At some point we need to go with the list we have and work on other areas of the program. Of course, I intend to spend the first week after release adding about another one to two hundred units to the list. I expect that “unit submissions†will be one of the biggest areas of feedback we’ll get post-release and each new patch will likely add a lot of previously omitted units.

And about the AAVP7A1 and AAAV. These are two different vehicles. Actually their is 4 vehicles. LVTP7 (1974), which was bought by a few countries other then the US like Italy, Argintina (used in falklands campaign), Spain, Thailand and South Korea. The AAVP7A1 (1983/1991) is an upgrade of this, with better engine, add-on armor and in the early 90's, the upgunned weapons station, with M2 .50 cal HMG and Mk 19 40mm AGL. Most other nations have upgraded their vehicles to this standard. Next is the AAVP7A1 RAM RS (1998), which again upgrades the engine and suppension (from Bradley), this vehicle has much better cross country preformence then the AAVP7A1 (540hp instead of 400hp). It can go 68 kmh where as the others can actually only go about 56 kmh. All three of these vehicles has a crew of 3, can go about 14 kmh in water (for 8 hours), 482 km on 175 gallons of fuel and can carry 25 troops (this isn't very fun after a few days in the field, trust me). They should also be used as a transport. Last is the AAAV, it should enter service in 2006, has a crew of 3, 18 troops, 30mm cannon, 72 kmh (probably a little faster) on land, 46 kmh on ocean and have better protection. This can have a naval attack value, where as the other can not! I spent 3.5 years around these vehicles, i know what i'm talking about. Also, the LVTP7/AAVP7s can carry 5 tons of cargo from ship to shore. AAAV cannot carry cargo at all. LVTP7 weights about 23 tons, AAVP7A1 (and RAM RS) weights about 26 tons and the weight limit on the AAAV program is 72,000 lbs (last I heard it weighed closer to 76,000 lbs).

Hey Slash, if you want to put together a spreadsheet with these missing units, I can help you out with it.
But as Balthagor said, some of these vehicles aren't going to be worth adding. The LAV-AG is pretty much the same as the Stryker MGS as far as I know, and probably not worth adding as a seperate unit.
I must admit, though, that there are a few vehicles on your list that I've never heard of before.

I look forward to seeing the spreadsheet you guys come up with. As long as I get it before release I will assit in getting any missing data filled to see that the units are in pre-release. BTW, I'm sure anyone that downloaded the spreadsheet noticed that there where some values we simply couldn't find that I put in an arbitrary value instead. Please highlight your spreadsheet the same way if you use any "educated guesses". As for your list, here are the following items you asked for that I'm fairly sure are in the spreadsheet (writing this from home, don't have it in front of me...);
Vickers' Mk 3 MBT
AMX-32 MBT
VAB AT
Finish Sisu XA series Finish Armored Modular Vehicle
Greek Kentaurus AIFV?
Italian Equipment
Centauro VBC APC
Switz Equipment
MOWAG Piranha IV APC (tagged as the LAV Piranha in infantry)
FNSS IFV
Russian BRDM-2, BRDM-3
Chinese Type 99 Light tank
Argentine TAMSE TAM tank
ASCOD light tank, ASCOD ICV, RN-94 APC, AMOS Advanced Mortar System
Feel free to check the spreadsheets for these again and include any data I missed. Having help with the list of units is something I'll never object too

First, my spread sheet will be kind of crude, with just the facts that i can find. Second, about the no move and attact penalty, that would be just as good as their own group.
And about the LAV-AG (105) vs. the Stryker (LAV III) 105 and LAV-600. The Stryker is too tall, an inch wide and too heavy to be airdropped or landed on a short runway with a C-130. The LAV-600 is shorter, but just as heavy and even wider. The LAV-AG (105), not to be confused with the LAV-AG with 90mm gun, weighs 15.25 US tons (16 US ton for C-130 short airfield landing), 6 inches shorter and is 5 inches narrower then Stryker 105.
