Default Re: Some Giro thoughts

Hi Marcello was generalising with comment about military spending certainly bang for the buck think most countries do better than USA when it comes to R&D & sure Soviets have the edge or at least a diffrent way of doing things in some areas.
Giros might be one as despite I think inventing US lagged behind for a long time & Soviets placed emphasis on mobility. Still refiting/upgrading is I think questionable hence my comment perhaps majority should have 5 or even 4 but all speculation on my part as found no data. Mentioned as a lot of work went into Russian OOB a while back & its so easy to enter something wrong. For instance from memory T-80 UM Bars started as the upgraded version in present times its now the underdog to standard T-80 in game terms. This may be right without doing research but think Russia only produces a handfull of T-80s a year if sources are to be believed.
