Is that by intention or why is the purchase routine not more 'dynamic'? Would it be possible that the player has more influence (customize) over those algorithms?

The AI pick lists
are dynamic, and vary by year and
opponent, and points available.
It will likely be using an Afghanistan type pick since the opponent is the
Mujadeen. Hence - foot grunts and little or no armour, no AAA weaponry etc. And these lists ignore tank heavy (since they have blank or sometimes substitute infantry "tank" picks for more infantry).
2000 points is not a lot to expect mech forces in any case - a scimitar costs 250 points or so, and the jaegers milans cost 150 each.
I ramped it up to 12000 points - and got the usual array of SAMs, MBT, APC etc for WW3. So the West German pick list does
not have an expeditionary forces pick. It simply had too few points to buy armour.
